• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MMPUR_UI_VIEW_MSG058 - At least one selected PR item is being processed in another session ?

  The SAP error message MMPUR_UI_VIEW_MSG058 indicates that at least one selected Purchase Requisition (PR) item is currently being processed in another session. This typically occurs when multiple users or sessions are trying to access or modify the same PR item simultaneously, leading to a conflict.
  Cause:
  
  Concurrent Access: Another user or session is editing or processing the same PR item.
  Lock Mechanism: SAP uses a locking mechanism to prevent data inconsistencies. When a PR item is being edited, it is locked for other users until the first session is completed or the lock is released.
  Session Timeout: If a session is left open for an extended period, it may still hold a lock on the PR item, causing this error for other users.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check for Other Sessions: Verify if another user is currently editing the same PR item. If possible, coordinate with them to avoid conflicts.
  Refresh the Session: Sometimes, simply refreshing the session or logging out and back in can resolve temporary locks.
  Wait and Retry: If you cannot identify the other session, wait for a few moments and then try to access the PR item again.
  Use Transaction Codes: If you have access, you can use transaction codes like SM12 to check for locks on the PR item. This transaction allows you to see which user or session is holding the lock.
  Contact SAP Support: If the issue persists and you cannot identify the cause, it may be necessary to contact your SAP support team for further assistance.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Lock Management: Understanding how SAP handles locks can help in troubleshooting similar issues. Locks are typically managed at the database level, and certain transactions may require exclusive access.
  User Training: Ensure that users are trained on how to properly handle PR items and the implications of concurrent access.
  System Configuration: Review system settings related to session management and locking behavior, as these can sometimes be adjusted to minimize conflicts.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the error and continue processing your Purchase Requisition items.
