• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EDESK_CORE129 - Original being processed by user &1 ?

  The SAP error message EDESK_CORE129 typically indicates that a document or process is currently being processed by another user. This can occur in various scenarios, such as when multiple users attempt to access or modify the same document or transaction simultaneously.
  Cause:
  
  Concurrent Access: Another user is currently processing the same document or transaction.
  Locking Mechanism: SAP uses a locking mechanism to prevent data inconsistencies. If a user has locked a document, other users will receive this error when trying to access it.
  Session Timeout: If a user has left a session open for an extended period, it may still hold a lock on the document.
  
  Solution:
  
  Wait and Retry: If the document is being processed by another user, wait for them to complete their task and then try again.
  Check User Sessions: Use transaction code SM04 to check active user sessions. If you identify the user who is processing the document, you can communicate with them to understand when they will finish.
  Release Locks: If you have the necessary authorizations, you can use transaction code SM12 to view and delete locks held by users. Be cautious with this approach, as it may lead to data inconsistencies if the other user is still working on the document.
  Review Workflow: If the error is related to a workflow process, ensure that the workflow is functioning correctly and that there are no stuck tasks.
  System Logs: Check system logs (transaction SM21) for any additional information that might help diagnose the issue.
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to this error message.
  Documentation: Review SAP documentation for the specific module or transaction you are working with to understand how locking works in that context.
  User Training: Ensure that users are trained on how to properly handle documents and transactions to minimize concurrent access issues.
