  The SAP error message J_1BNFE_CF036 ("Your selection is currently locked") typically occurs in the context of the Brazilian fiscal reporting process, particularly when dealing with the Nota Fiscal Eletrônica (NF-e) or other related functionalities in the SAP system. This error indicates that the selection criteria you are trying to use for a report or transaction is currently locked, preventing you from proceeding.
  Causes:
  
  Concurrent Access: Another user or process is currently accessing the same selection criteria or data set, which locks it for other users.
  Background Jobs: A background job may be running that is using the same selection criteria, causing a temporary lock.
  Transaction Locking: The system may have a locking mechanism in place to prevent data inconsistencies, which can occur if multiple users attempt to modify the same data simultaneously.
  Incomplete Previous Process: If a previous process that was supposed to release the lock did not complete successfully, it may leave the selection locked.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Wait and Retry: If the lock is due to another user or process, waiting for a few moments and then retrying the operation may resolve the issue.
  Check for Active Sessions: Use transaction SM12 to check for any active locks. You can see which users or processes are holding locks and, if necessary, release them (if you have the appropriate authorizations).
  Review Background Jobs: Check transaction SM37 to see if there are any background jobs that might be using the same selection criteria. If you find any, you may need to wait for them to complete or cancel them if they are stuck.
  Consult with IT Support: If the issue persists, it may be necessary to consult with your SAP Basis or IT support team to investigate further. They can check for any system-level issues or configurations that might be causing the lock.
  System Restart: In some cases, a system restart may be required to clear any persistent locks, but this should be done with caution and typically as a last resort.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as SM12 (for lock entries), SM37 (for job monitoring), and SE11 (for data dictionary) to help diagnose the issue.
  SAP Notes: Check the SAP Support Portal for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional troubleshooting steps.
  User Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to access and modify the data you are trying to work with, as insufficient permissions can sometimes lead to unexpected behavior.
