  Check for Active Processes: Investigate if there are any other processes or users currently importing or modifying the same value range IDs. You may need to wait for those processes to complete.
  Release Locks: If you have access, you can check the transaction logs or use transaction codes like SM12 (to check for locks) and SM21 (to check system logs) to identify and release any unnecessary locks.
  Retry the Import: After ensuring that no other processes are using the value range IDs, retry the import operation.
  System Configuration: Ensure that your system is configured correctly for handling concurrent imports. This may involve adjusting settings related to locking mechanisms or import processes.
