SF377
- View & of structure & is currently being edited ?The SAP error message SF377, which states "View & of structure & is currently being edited," typically occurs when you attempt to access or modify a view or structure in the SAP system that is currently being edited by another user or session. This is a common issue in environments where multiple users are working on the same data or configuration.
Cause:
- Concurrent Editing: Another user is currently editing the same view or structure.
- Session Lock: The system has locked the view or structure due to an ongoing transaction or session.
- Uncommitted Changes: Changes made in a previous session have not been saved or committed, leading to a lock.
Solution:
- Wait and Retry: If another user is editing the view, you may need to wait until they finish and release the lock. You can try again after some time.
- Check Active Sessions: Use transaction code

to check for active locks. You can see which user or session is holding the lock and, if necessary, contact them to resolve the issue.- Release Locks: If you have the necessary authorizations, you can manually release the lock from transaction

. Be cautious with this approach, as it may lead to data inconsistency if the other user is still working on the data.- Log Off and Log Back In: Sometimes, simply logging off and back into the system can clear temporary locks.
- Check for Background Jobs: If the view is being edited as part of a background job, you may need to wait for the job to complete.
