• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DMCLG758 - The application &1 is locked for Workbench processing ?

  The SAP error message DMCLG758 indicates that a specific application (denoted by &1) is currently locked for Workbench processing. This typically occurs when a transport request is being processed or when another user is working on the same object, preventing you from making changes.
  Cause:
  
  Transport Request in Progress: A transport request is currently being processed for the application, which locks it for further changes.
  User Lock: Another user is editing the same object, causing a lock.
  System Lock: The system may have a lock due to a previous operation that did not complete successfully.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Transport Requests: 
  
  Use transaction code SE09 or SE10 to check if there are any transport requests that are currently in process. If you find one, you may need to wait until it is completed.
  
  
  
  Identify Locked Objects:
  
  Use transaction code SM12 to check for locks. You can filter by the user or object name to see if there are any locks on the application you are trying to access.
  If you find a lock that is no longer needed (e.g., a user has logged off unexpectedly), you can delete the lock entry if you have the necessary authorizations.
  
  
  
  Contact the User: 
  
  If another user is working on the same object, you may need to coordinate with them to resolve the issue.
  
  
  
  Check System Logs: 
  
  Use transaction code SM21 to check the system logs for any errors or issues that might have caused the lock.
  
  
  
  Wait and Retry: 
  
  If the lock is due to a transport request or another user, sometimes the best solution is to wait until the process is completed and then try again.
