• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/SRC002 - Source of supply is locked ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/SRC002 Source of supply is locked typically occurs in the SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) module when a source of supply (such as a vendor, plant, or storage location) is locked for certain operations. This can happen for various reasons, including:
  Causes:
  
  Locked by Another User: Another user may be currently editing or processing the source of supply, causing it to be locked.
  System Lock: The system may have a temporary lock due to a transaction that is still in progress or has not been completed.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings that inadvertently lock the source of supply.
  Data Consistency Issues: There could be inconsistencies in the data that lead to the source of supply being locked.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check User Locks: Use transaction code SM12 to check for any user locks on the source of supply. If you find a lock that is no longer needed, you can delete it (ensure you have the necessary authorizations).
  Wait and Retry: If the lock is due to another user, you may need to wait until they finish their transaction and then try again.
  Review Configuration: Check the configuration settings in the APO system to ensure that there are no settings that are causing the source of supply to be locked.
  Data Consistency Check: Run consistency checks in the APO system to identify and resolve any data issues that may be causing the lock.
  Contact Basis Team: If the issue persists, it may be necessary to involve the SAP Basis team to investigate any underlying system issues or locks that cannot be resolved through standard user transactions.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as SM12 (to check and delete user locks), SM21 (to check system logs), and SLG1 (to check application logs).
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional troubleshooting steps.
  Documentation: Review the SAP documentation for APO to understand how source of supply management works and any specific configurations that may affect locking behavior.
