  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message PSB_API_MSGCL113 - Network &1 locked; you cannot delete relationships ?

    The SAP error message PSB_API_MSGCL113 indicates that a network (or project network) is locked, which prevents you from deleting relationships associated with that network. This typically occurs in the context of Project System (PS) or related modules where project networks are managed.

    Cause:

    1. Network Locking: The network is currently locked by another user or process. This can happen if someone is currently editing the network or if a transaction is in progress that locks the network.
    2. Status of the Network: The network may be in a status that does not allow changes, such as being released or in a closed state.
    3. User Authorization: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to delete relationships in the network.

    Solution:

    1. Check Lock Status:

      • Use transaction code SM12 to check for locks on the network. You can look for locks associated with the network number and see if another user is currently editing it.
      • If you find a lock that is no longer needed, you can ask the user to release it or, if appropriate, you can delete the lock yourself (ensure you have the necessary authorizations to do so).
    2. Review Network Status:

      • Check the status of the network using transaction code CN21 (for creating networks) or CN22 (for changing networks). Ensure that the network is not in a status that prevents changes.
      • If the network is released or in a closed status, you may need to change its status to allow modifications.
    3. User Authorization:

      • Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to delete relationships in the network. You may need to consult with your SAP security team to verify your permissions.
    4. Wait for Process Completion:

      • If the network is locked due to another process, you may need to wait until that process is completed before attempting to delete the relationships again.
    5. Consult Documentation:

      • Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for more detailed information on managing project networks and understanding the implications of network locking.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:

      • SM12: To view and manage locks.
      • CN21: To create networks.
      • CN22: To change networks.
      • CN23: To display networks.
    • SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address specific issues related to network locking and relationships in the Project System.

    • Support: If the issue persists and you cannot resolve it, consider reaching out to your SAP support team for further assistance.

    By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the error and take appropriate action to resolve it.
