• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message PPEENG093 - &1 &2 was changed and can only be unlocked after you save ?

  The SAP error message PPEENG093 typically indicates that a particular object (like a production order, planning object, or similar) has been modified and is currently locked. This lock prevents other users from making changes until the current user saves their changes or releases the lock.
  Cause:
  
  Concurrent Access: Another user or process is trying to access the same object that is currently being edited.
  Unfinished Changes: The object has been modified but not yet saved, which means it remains locked for other users.
  Session Timeout: Sometimes, if a session times out or is interrupted, it can leave objects in a locked state.
  
  Solution:
  
  Save Changes: If you are the user who has the object open, save your changes. This will unlock the object for other users.
  Check for Locks: Use transaction code SM12 to check for locks on the object. You can see which user has locked the object and take appropriate action.
  Release Locks: If you find that a lock is held by a user who is no longer active, you may need to release the lock manually (if you have the necessary permissions).
  Communicate with Users: If you are in a collaborative environment, communicate with your team to ensure that everyone is aware of who is working on which objects to avoid conflicts.
  Review System Logs: Check system logs for any errors or issues that might have caused the lock to persist.
