• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DMEE753 - Synchronization aborted for locked trees in your selection. ?

  The SAP error message DMEE753, which states "Synchronization aborted for locked trees in your selection," typically occurs in the context of the Data Medium Exchange Engine (DMEE) when there are issues related to the synchronization of DMEE trees. This error indicates that the system is unable to synchronize the selected DMEE trees because they are locked, which can happen for various reasons.
  Causes:
  
  Locked DMEE Trees: The DMEE trees you are trying to synchronize are currently locked by another user or process. This can happen if another user is editing the tree or if a previous process did not release the lock properly.
  User Permissions: The user attempting to perform the synchronization may not have the necessary permissions to access or modify the locked trees.
  System Issues: There may be underlying system issues or bugs that are causing the locking mechanism to malfunction.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check for Locks: 
  
  Use transaction code SM12 to check for any locks on the DMEE trees. You can filter by the relevant user or object to see if there are any active locks.
  If you find locks that are no longer needed, you can delete them (if you have the necessary permissions) to allow synchronization to proceed.
  
  
  
  Wait for Release: If the locks are held by another user, you may need to wait for that user to finish their work and release the lock.
  
  
  User Permissions: Ensure that the user has the appropriate permissions to access and modify the DMEE trees. You may need to consult with your SAP security team to verify and adjust permissions if necessary.
  
  
  Restart the Process: If the issue persists, try restarting the transaction or process that is causing the error. Sometimes, a simple restart can resolve temporary issues.
  
  
  Check for System Issues: If you suspect that there may be a system issue, check for any relevant notes in the SAP Support Portal or consult with your SAP Basis team to investigate further.
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes: Look for any SAP Notes related to DMEE and this specific error message. There may be patches or updates that address known issues.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as DMEE (for managing DMEE trees) and SM12 (for monitoring locks).
  SAP Documentation: Review the official SAP documentation for DMEE to understand how the synchronization process works and best practices for managing DMEE trees.
  SAP Community: Engage with the SAP Community forums to see if other users have encountered similar issues and what solutions they have found.
