This error typically arises in the context of payroll processing or reporting where selection versions are used to define specific criteria for data selection.

  Check for Locks:
  
  Ensure that the selection version is not currently in use or locked by another user or process. If it is locked, you may need to wait until it is released or contact the user who is using it.
