• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSWWW112 - Query view &1 already locked by user &2 ?

  The SAP error message RSWWW112 indicates that a query view (typically a BW query) is currently locked by another user. This can happen when a user is editing or running a query, and another user tries to access the same query view simultaneously.
  Cause:
  
  Concurrent Access: Another user is currently using or editing the query view.
  Session Timeout: A previous session may not have released the lock due to a timeout or an unexpected termination.
  System Issues: Sometimes, system inconsistencies or bugs can lead to locks not being released properly.
  
  Solution:
  
  Wait and Retry: If the lock is temporary, simply waiting for the other user to finish their work may resolve the issue.
  Identify the Locking User: You can check who is currently locking the query view by using transaction SM12 (for lock entries) or SM21 (for system logs). Look for the user ID mentioned in the error message.
  Contact the Locking User: If possible, reach out to the user who is locking the query view to see if they can release it.
  Release the Lock: If the locking user is unavailable and you have the necessary authorizations, you can manually delete the lock entry in SM12. Be cautious with this approach, as it may lead to data inconsistencies if the other user is actively working on the query.
  Check for System Issues: If this issue occurs frequently, it may be worth investigating if there are underlying system issues or bugs that need to be addressed.
