  Solution:
  
  Check Key Figure Locking: Ensure that the key figure is locked for the relevant planning period. You can do this by checking the locking status in the planning book or using transaction codes like /SAPAPO/TSM to manage locks.
  Lock the Key Figure: If the key figure is not locked, you may need to manually lock it for the required period. This can typically be done through the planning book or by using specific transactions designed for locking key figures.
  Review Planning Area Settings: Verify the configuration of the planning area to ensure that key figures are set up correctly and that locking mechanisms are functioning as intended.
  Check User Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to lock and modify the key figure. This may involve checking roles and permissions in the SAP system.
