• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EMMA115 - Data was changed; save the changes ?

  The SAP error message EMMA115, which states "Data was changed; save the changes," typically occurs when there are unsaved changes in a transaction or data entry screen, and the system detects that the data has been modified since the last save. This can happen in various scenarios, such as when multiple users are accessing the same data or when there are background processes that update the data.
  Cause:
  
  Concurrent Access: Another user or process has modified the data you are working on since you last saved it.
  Session Timeout: Your session may have timed out, and the data was updated by another user or process.
  Data Locking: The data you are trying to save is locked by another transaction or user.
  Background Jobs: Background jobs or processes may have updated the data while you were working on it.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Changes: Check the changes made to the data. If you want to keep your changes, you may need to reconcile them with the current data.
  Refresh the Screen: Refresh the screen or re-enter the transaction to see the latest data. This can help you understand what has changed.
  Save Your Changes: If you are sure that your changes are valid and you want to overwrite the existing data, you can save your changes. Be cautious, as this may overwrite other users' changes.
  Consult with Users: If you are in a multi-user environment, consult with other users to understand what changes were made.
  Check for Locks: If you suspect that the data is locked, check for any active sessions or transactions that may be holding a lock on the data.
  Use Transaction Codes: If applicable, use transaction codes like SM12 (to check for locks) or SM21 (to check system logs) to diagnose the issue further.
