• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /KJEDM/M001009 - Delivery data table is locked by (&) ?

  The SAP error message /KJEDM/M001009 Delivery data table is locked by (&) indicates that a specific table related to delivery data is currently locked by another user or process. This can happen in various scenarios, such as when a transaction is being processed, or when a user is editing data in the system.
  Cause:
  
  Concurrent Access: Another user or process is currently accessing or modifying the delivery data table, which prevents your transaction from proceeding.
  Long-running Transactions: A transaction that takes a long time to complete may hold a lock on the table longer than expected.
  System Errors: Sometimes, system errors or crashes can leave locks in place that need to be cleared.
  
  Solution:
  
  Wait and Retry: Often, the simplest solution is to wait for a few moments and then try your transaction again. The lock may be released once the other user or process completes their work.
  Identify the Lock: Use transaction code SM12 to view and manage locks in the system. You can check which user or process is holding the lock and take appropriate action.
  Contact the User: If you identify the user holding the lock, you may want to contact them to see if they can release the lock or if they are still actively working on the transaction.
  Release the Lock: If necessary and if you have the appropriate permissions, you can manually delete the lock entry in SM12. However, this should be done with caution, as it may lead to data inconsistencies if the other user is still working on the data.
  Check for Long-running Jobs: Use transaction SM37 to check for any long-running jobs that might be holding locks. If you find any, you may need to investigate further or contact the responsible team.
  System Administration: If the issue persists, it may require intervention from your SAP Basis team to investigate and resolve any underlying issues with the system.
