• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CZ414 - Number range object & currently locked by another user ?

  The SAP error message CZ414 indicates that a number range object is currently locked by another user. This typically occurs when multiple users or processes are trying to access or modify the same number range object simultaneously, leading to a conflict.
  Cause:
  
  Concurrent Access: Another user or process is currently using the number range object, which prevents your session from accessing it.
  Long Transactions: If a transaction that uses the number range object is taking a long time to complete, it can lead to temporary locks.
  System Configuration: The number range object may be configured in a way that restricts access to a single user at a time.
  
  Solution:
  
  Wait and Retry: The simplest solution is to wait for a few moments and then try again. The lock may be released once the other user or process completes their transaction.
  Identify the Lock: Use transaction code SM12 to check for locks in the system. You can look for the specific number range object and see which user is holding the lock.
  Contact the User: If you identify the user holding the lock, you can contact them to see if they can complete their transaction or release the lock.
  Release the Lock: If necessary and if you have the appropriate authorizations, you can manually delete the lock entry in SM12. However, this should be done with caution, as it may disrupt the other user's transaction.
  Check Configuration: Review the configuration of the number range object in transaction SNRO to ensure that it is set up correctly and that there are no unnecessary restrictions.
