• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message LTR_CM035 - Object &1 is locked by user &2. ?

  The SAP error message LTR_CM035 indicates that a specific object (denoted as &1) is locked by a user (denoted as &2). This typically occurs in the context of SAP's transport management system or when working with certain objects in the system that require exclusive access.
  Cause:
  
  Object Locking: The object you are trying to access or modify is currently locked by another user. This can happen if the user is editing the object or if a previous session did not release the lock properly.
  Transport Requests: If the object is part of a transport request, it may be locked during the transport process.
  Long-running Transactions: Sometimes, long-running transactions can hold locks longer than expected, preventing other users from accessing the object.
  
  Solution:
  
  Wait and Retry: If the lock is temporary, waiting for the other user to finish their work may resolve the issue. You can try again after some time.
  Identify the Lock: Use transaction code SM12 to view and manage locks. You can check which user is holding the lock on the object and the details of the lock.
  Release the Lock: If you have the necessary authorizations, you can manually delete the lock entry in SM12. However, be cautious with this approach, as it may disrupt the work of the user holding the lock.
  Contact the User: If you identify the user holding the lock, you can reach out to them to see if they can release the lock or if they are still working on the object.
  Check for Background Jobs: Sometimes, background jobs may hold locks. You can check transaction SM37 to see if any background jobs are running that might be causing the lock.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Lock Management: Understanding how SAP handles locks can help in troubleshooting. Locks are used to ensure data integrity and prevent conflicts when multiple users are trying to access the same object.
  Transport Management: Familiarize yourself with the transport management system in SAP, as it plays a significant role in how objects are moved between different environments (development, quality assurance, production).
  User Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to view and manage locks in the system.
