• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /PM0/AB_IBC_CNFG_I_C143 - Check for import lock on attribute values will not be executed ?

  The SAP error message /PM0/AB_IBC_CNFG_I_C143 indicates that there is an issue related to the import lock on attribute values in the context of SAP Integrated Business Planning (IBP) or similar applications. This error typically arises during data import processes when the system checks for locks on attribute values to ensure data integrity and consistency.
  Cause:
  
  Import Lock: The error suggests that there is an existing import lock on the attribute values that prevents the execution of the check. This can happen if another process is currently importing data or if a previous import did not complete successfully.

  Solution:
  
  Check for Active Imports: Verify if there are any ongoing import processes that might be holding the lock. You can do this by checking the import logs or monitoring tools in SAP.
  Wait and Retry: If you find that another import is in progress, wait for it to complete and then retry your import.
  Release Locks: If you suspect that a lock is stuck due to a failed process, you may need to manually release the lock. This can typically be done by an administrator through transaction codes or specific tools in the SAP system.
  Review Configuration: Ensure that the system configuration for data imports and locks is set up correctly. This may involve checking settings related to data import jobs and locks in the IBP configuration.
