  The SAP error message CSL_ENQOBJ018 indicates that there is an issue with the mapping of a Data Dictionary (DDIC) lock object in the SAP system. This error typically arises when the system is unable to find a corresponding lock object for a specific table, which can lead to issues with data consistency and integrity during concurrent access.
  Cause:
  The error message "No mapping DDIC lock object - lock object type maintained (table &1)" suggests that:
  
  The lock object for the specified table (&1) is not defined in the system.
  The lock object may have been deleted or not created properly.
  There may be a configuration issue in the system that prevents the lock object from being recognized.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Lock Object Definition:
  
  Use transaction code SE11 (Data Dictionary) to check if the lock object for the specified table exists.
  Enter the name of the lock object and see if it is defined correctly.

  Check Table Definition:
  
  Ensure that the table in question is correctly defined and that it is associated with the appropriate lock object.
  You can check the table definition in transaction code SE11.
  
  
  
  Transport Issues:
