• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPDMC/LSMW_AUX_010001 - Object currently being edited by user &. Display only. ?

  The SAP error message /SAPDMC/LSMW_AUX_010001 indicates that the object you are trying to edit in the LSMW (Legacy System Migration Workbench) is currently being edited by another user. This is a common issue in SAP environments where multiple users may be accessing the same object simultaneously.
  Cause:
  
  The object (like a project, subproject, or object within LSMW) is locked by another user who is currently editing it. SAP locks objects to prevent data inconsistencies and conflicts that can arise from simultaneous edits.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Wait for Release: The simplest solution is to wait until the other user has finished editing the object and has released the lock. You can check with your team to see if someone is currently working on it.
  
  
  Check Lock Entries: You can check the lock entries in SAP using transaction code SM12. This will show you which user has locked the object. If you have the necessary authorizations, you can delete the lock entry, but this should be done with caution and ideally after confirming with the user who is editing the object.
  
  
  Use a Different Object: If possible, consider working on a different object or creating a copy of the object you need to work on.
  
  
  Communicate with Team: If this is a frequent issue, it may be beneficial to establish a communication protocol within your team to avoid overlapping edits on the same objects.
