This error typically occurs in the Human Resources (HR) module when trying to access or modify information related to a specific employee whose personnel number is currently locked.
  Cause:
  
  Data Locking: The personnel number may be locked due to ongoing processes such as payroll processing, data uploads, or other HR-related transactions that require exclusive access to the employee's data.
