What causes this issue?

You cannot lock data records for object &V1& after activation by BC Sets
, for technical reasons.

System Response

You can usually only fix data records of customizing objects which are
based on the standard maintenance transactions SM30/SM34 (all objects
with generated maintenance dialog, e.g. views, view clusters, tables
with text tables). You cannot lock data records for objects of type 'T'
(individual transaction), 'L' (logical transport objects) or simple
database tables (without generated maintenance dialog).
&WHAT_TO_DO& &WHAT_TO_DO&
The transaction SOBJ provides detailed information about the BC Set
compatibility of the customizing object. The header information of
object &V1& contains a BC Set compatibility check pushbutton.
Check whether the object data can be activated. If this is not the case,
you cannot lock data records after activation. If activation is possible
("checked" or "unchecked") you cannot fix data records for technical
reasons. In this case, you can only use the object to document existing
customizing settings (if this application scenario is allowed).

Procedure for System Administrators
