  The SAP error message HRPADNO_EDG122 indicates that a specific record in the TAB06 table is currently locked by another user. This typically occurs in the context of HR (Human Resources) data management, where multiple users may be trying to access or modify the same data simultaneously.
  Cause:
  
  Record Locking: The record in the TAB06 table is locked by another user who is currently editing or processing that record. SAP uses locking mechanisms to prevent data inconsistencies that can arise from concurrent updates.
  Long Transactions: If a user is taking a long time to complete their transaction, it can lead to prolonged locking of the record.
  System Issues: Occasionally, system issues or errors can lead to records being locked unintentionally.
  
  Solution:
  
  Wait and Retry: The simplest solution is to wait for the other user to complete their transaction. Once the lock is released, you can try to access the record again.
  Identify the Lock: Use transaction code SM12 to check for locked entries. You can see which user is holding the lock and the details of the locked record.
  Release the Lock: If you have the necessary authorizations and it is appropriate to do so, you can manually release the lock from transaction SM12. However, be cautious with this approach, as it may lead to data inconsistencies if the other user is still working on the record.
  Communicate with the User: If you identify the user who has locked the record, you may want to communicate with them to understand their needs and coordinate access to the record.
  Check for System Issues: If this issue occurs frequently, it may be worth investigating whether there are underlying system issues or if the locking behavior can be optimized.
