The error message suggests that the changes intended to be saved to the database were not successful.
  Cause:

  Data Consistency Issues: There may be inconsistencies in the data that the XPRA is trying to process, leading to a failure.
  Technical Errors: There could be underlying technical issues, such as problems with the database connection or configuration errors in the TMS.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Database Locks: Use transaction code SM12 to check for any locks on the database tables that the XPRA is trying to access. If locks are found, they may need to be released.

  Run the XPRA Again: Sometimes, simply re-running the XPRA can resolve transient issues. You can do this using transaction SE38 or SA38 and executing the relevant program.
  Check Logs: Review the application logs for more detailed error messages. You can use transaction SLG1 to check for logs related to the XPRA execution.
