Smart SAP Assistant

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EEWA_NBASE141 - &1 &2 is buffered and cannot be released. ?

  The SAP error message EEWA_NBASE141 typically indicates that a certain object (like a material, vendor, or customer) is currently buffered in the system and cannot be released or modified until the buffer is cleared. This can happen in various scenarios, such as when trying to change or delete a record that is being used in a transaction or is locked due to buffering.
  Cause:
  
  Buffering Mechanism: SAP uses buffering to improve performance by storing frequently accessed data in memory. If an object is buffered, it means that the system is holding a copy of that object in memory for quick access.
  Transaction Lock: The object may be locked by another transaction or user, preventing changes or releases.
  Data Consistency: The system may prevent the release of the object to maintain data consistency, especially if it is being used in other processes.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Buffer Status: Use transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary) or SE16 (Data Browser) to check the status of the object in question. You can also check the buffer status using transaction SM12 (Lock Entries) to see if there are any locks on the object.
  Release Locks: If the object is locked by another user or transaction, you may need to wait for that transaction to complete or ask the user to release the lock.
  Clear Buffer: If you have the necessary authorizations, you can clear the buffer for the specific object. This can be done using transaction SM04 (User Overview) or SM12 to delete the lock entries.
  Adjust Buffering Settings: If this issue occurs frequently, consider reviewing the buffering settings for the object type in question. This can be done in the Data Dictionary (SE11) by checking the buffering settings for the relevant table.
  Consult SAP Notes: Check the SAP Support Portal for any relevant notes or updates regarding this error message. There may be specific patches or updates that address this issue.
  
  Related Information:

  User Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to perform actions related to buffering and locks.
