• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FITVPS295 - Posting run for superordinate temporary assignment is locked ?

  The SAP error message FITVPS295, which states "Posting run for superordinate temporary assignment is locked," typically occurs in the context of the SAP Flexible Real Estate Management (RE-FX) module. This error indicates that a posting run for a temporary assignment is currently locked, preventing further processing.
  Cause:
  
  Concurrent Processing: The most common cause of this error is that another user or process is currently executing a posting run for the same temporary assignment. SAP locks the posting run to prevent data inconsistencies.
  Incomplete Previous Run: If a previous posting run was not completed successfully, it may still hold a lock on the temporary assignment.
  System Configuration: There may be specific configurations or settings in the system that are causing the lock.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check for Active Processes: Verify if another user or process is currently running a posting run for the same temporary assignment. You can use transaction codes like SM12 (to check for locks) or SM66 (to view active processes) to identify any active sessions.
  Wait and Retry: If another user is processing the posting run, you may need to wait until they complete their task and then retry your posting run.
  Release Locks: If you find that a previous posting run is stuck or incomplete, you may need to release the lock. This can be done by:
  
  Identifying the user session holding the lock and asking them to complete or cancel their process.
  If necessary, a system administrator can use transaction SM12 to manually delete the lock entries, but this should be done with caution to avoid data inconsistencies.
  
  
  Check Logs: Review the application logs (transaction SLG1) for any additional error messages or warnings that might provide more context about the issue.
  System Configuration Review: If the issue persists, review the system configuration related to posting runs and temporary assignments to ensure everything is set up correctly.
