  Cause:
  The error usually arises due to one of the following reasons:
  
  Concurrent Access: Another user or process is currently accessing or modifying the business event, leading to a lock on that event.

  Solution:

  If you find a lock that is no longer needed, you can delete it (if you have the necessary authorizations).
  
  
  
  Wait and Retry:
  
  If the lock is due to another user, you may need to wait until that user has completed their transaction and released the lock.
  
  
  
  Review Transaction Logs:
  
  Check transaction logs or system messages to identify if there were any issues during the processing of the business event that might have caused it to remain locked.
  
  
  
  System Restart:
  
  In some cases, a system restart may help clear temporary locks, especially if the lock is due to a system error.
