• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SCCR062 - Table &1 was being edited by at least two exits; Operation cancelled ?

  The SAP error message SCCR062 indicates that a specific table (denoted by &1) is being edited by multiple exits simultaneously, which leads to a conflict and causes the operation to be canceled. This typically occurs in the context of customizing or modifying SAP applications, particularly when using the SAP Customizing Implementation Guide (IMG) or during transport requests.
  Cause:
  
  Concurrent Editing: The most common cause of this error is that two or more users or processes are trying to edit the same table at the same time. This can happen in a development environment where multiple developers are working on the same object.
  Locking Mechanism: SAP uses a locking mechanism to prevent data inconsistencies. When one user is editing a table, it locks that table for editing by others. If another user tries to edit the same table, they will encounter this error.
  Transport Requests: If you are trying to transport changes that involve the same table being edited by another transport request, this can also trigger the error.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check for Locks: Use transaction code SM12 to check for any existing locks on the table. If you find locks that are no longer needed, you can delete them (if you have the necessary authorizations).
  Coordinate with Team Members: If you are in a team environment, communicate with your colleagues to ensure that no one else is editing the same table at the same time.
  Wait and Retry: If the table is locked by another user, you may need to wait until they finish their changes and release the lock before you can proceed.
  Use Transport Organizer: If you are working with transport requests, ensure that you are not trying to transport changes that conflict with other ongoing transports. You may need to coordinate the timing of your transports.
  Check for Background Jobs: Sometimes, background jobs may also lock tables. Check transaction SM37 to see if any background jobs are running that might be causing the lock.
