• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMTMS/PLN_VSR_OL002 - &1 was changed in a parallel session; save your data and refresh ?

  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/PLN_VSR_OL002 typically indicates that a record you are trying to modify has been changed in another session. This is a common issue in SAP systems when multiple users or sessions are trying to access and modify the same data simultaneously. Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information:
  Cause:
  
  Concurrent Access: The error occurs when two or more users are trying to edit the same object or record at the same time. One user may have saved changes that the other user is not aware of.
  Session Management: If you have multiple sessions open and are working on the same data in different sessions, this can lead to conflicts.
  Data Locking: SAP uses a locking mechanism to prevent data inconsistencies. If a record is locked by another session, you will receive this error when trying to save your changes.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Refresh the Data: The error message suggests saving your data and refreshing. You can do this by:
  
  Saving any changes you have made (if applicable).
  Refreshing the screen or navigating away and back to the transaction to reload the data.
  Check if the data you are trying to edit is still valid after the refresh.
  
  
  
  Check for Other Sessions: If you have multiple sessions open, check if you are editing the same record in another session. Close any unnecessary sessions or navigate back to the original session.
  
  
  Communicate with Other Users: If you are working in a team, communicate with your colleagues to ensure that no one else is making changes to the same record.
  
  
  Use Transaction Codes: If applicable, use transaction codes like SM12 to check for locks on the object you are trying to edit. You can see if another user has locked the record.
  
  
  Error Handling: If the issue persists, consider implementing error handling in your process to manage such conflicts more gracefully.
  
  
  Related Information:

  User Training: Ensure that users are trained on how to handle concurrent access issues and the importance of refreshing data before making changes.
