• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DPR_CGPL_MESSAGES017 - Object &1 is being processed or has been processed in another session ?

  The SAP error message DPR_CGPL_MESSAGES017 indicates that a specific object (denoted by &1) is currently being processed or has been processed in another session. This typically occurs in the context of project management or portfolio management within SAP, particularly when dealing with project-related objects.
  
  Cause:
  
  Concurrent Processing: The object you are trying to access is already being processed by another user or session. This can happen if multiple users are trying to edit or update the same project or object simultaneously.
  Session Locking: SAP uses locking mechanisms to prevent data inconsistencies. If a session has locked the object for editing, other sessions will be unable to access it until the lock is released.

  Solution:
  
  Check Active Sessions: Verify if another user is currently editing the object. You can use transaction codes like SM04 (User Overview) or
