• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/DS_CORE264 - Another user is currently editing the appointment. ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/DS_CORE264 Another user is currently editing the appointment typically occurs in the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module when a user attempts to edit an appointment that is already being modified by another user. This is a concurrency control mechanism to prevent data inconsistencies.
  
  Cause:
  
  Concurrent Access: Another user has opened the appointment for editing, and the system locks it to prevent simultaneous modifications.
  Session Timeout: If a user has left the appointment open for an extended period, the session may still be active, causing the lock.
  System Configuration: The system may be configured to allow only one user to edit certain records at a time.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  Wait and Retry: If possible, wait for the other user to finish editing the appointment and then try again.
  Check Active Sessions: If you have access, check if the other user is still active in the system. You can use transaction codes like SM04 or AL08
