EHPRC_CPM_EXPORT043 - Details

• The SAP error message EHPRC_CPM_EXPORT043 indicates that a specification (identified by &1) is currently locked due to an ongoing IMDS (International Material Data System) upload of another specification (identified by &2). This typically occurs in environments where multiple users or processes are trying to access or modify the same specification simultaneously.
  
  Cause:
  
  Concurrent Access: The specification you are trying to export is locked because another process (in this case, an IMDS upload) is currently using it.
  Long-running Processes: If the IMDS upload takes a long time, it can lead to prolonged locking of the specification.
  System Configuration: The system may be configured to lock specifications during certain operations to prevent data inconsistencies.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  Wait for Completion: The simplest solution is to wait until the IMDS upload process completes. Once it finishes, the lock on the specification should be released, allowing you to proceed with your export.
  Check Lock Status: You can check the status of the lock
