• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KA355 - Costing sheet & is already being processed by user & ?

  The SAP error message KA355 indicates that a costing sheet is currently being processed by another user. This typically occurs in the context of product costing or cost planning when multiple users attempt to access or modify the same costing sheet simultaneously.
  Cause:
  
  Concurrent Access: Another user is currently using the costing sheet, which locks it for editing.

  Solution:
  
  Wait and Retry: If another user is processing the costing sheet, wait for them to finish and try again later.
  Check User Sessions: Use transaction codes like SM12 (to check for locked entries) to see if the costing sheet is locked by a specific user. If you have the necessary permissions, you can unlock it.
  Contact the User: If you can identify the user who is currently processing the costing sheet, you may want to reach out to them to coordinate access.
  System Administrator: If the issue persists and you suspect a system error, contact your SAP system administrator for assistance. They can investigate further and may need to unlock the session or resolve any underlying issues.
  Log Off and Log Back In: Sometimes, simply logging off and back into the SAP system can clear up session-related issues.
