• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSPLF105 - Planning function &1 is locked by user '&2'; only display is possible ?

  The SAP error message RSPLF105 indicates that a planning function is currently locked by another user, which prevents you from executing the planning function in a write mode. Instead, you can only view the function's details. This situation typically arises in environments where multiple users are working with planning functions simultaneously.
  Cause:
  
  User Lock: The planning function is being executed or modified by another user, which locks it for other users.
  Session Lock: A previous session may not have been properly closed, leaving the planning function in a locked state.
  System Configuration: Certain configurations in the SAP BW system may lead to locking mechanisms that prevent concurrent access.
  
  Solution:
  
  Wait for Release: If another user is actively using the planning function, you may need to wait until they finish their work and release the lock.
  Check User Sessions: You can check which user is locking the planning function by using transaction code SM12 (for lock entries) or SM21 (for system logs) to identify the user and session.
  Terminate Session: If you have the necessary authorizations, you can terminate the session of the user who is locking the planning function. This can be done in transaction SM04 (User Overview) or SM12 (Lock Entries).
  Contact Administrator: If you are unable to resolve the issue, contact your SAP system administrator for assistance. They can help identify the cause of the lock and take appropriate action.
  Review Planning Function Settings: Ensure that the planning function is configured correctly and that there are no unnecessary locks set in the system.
