• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /PLMB/AUTH_BO010 - Object &2 (object type &3) is already owned by context &1 ?

  The SAP error message /PLMB/AUTH_BO010 indicates that there is an ownership conflict for a business object in the context of SAP PLM (Product Lifecycle Management).

  Cause:
  
  Ownership Conflict: The object (e.g., document, material, etc.) is already assigned to a different context or user, which means that it cannot be modified or accessed by the current user or context.

  Solution:
  
  Check Ownership: Verify who currently owns the object and in which context it is being used. You can do this by checking the object properties or using transaction codes related to PLM.
