  Refresh the Data: Refresh the screen or re-fetch the data to get the latest version. This will allow you to see the most current data and make your changes accordingly.
  Check for Locks: Use transaction codes like SM12 to check for locks on the record. If you find that another user has locked the record, you may need to wait until they release it.
  Communicate with Users: If possible, communicate with the other users who might be working on the same data to coordinate changes and avoid conflicts.
  Error Handling: Implement error handling in your application logic to gracefully manage such conflicts, possibly by prompting the user to refresh or retry the operation.
  Review User Permissions: Ensure that users have the appropriate permissions and that there are no unnecessary locks being held on records.
