How to fix this error?

You can only make changes in system &V1&.

Procedure for System Administrators

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

If the necessity for the change is specified, contact the system
administrator.
The system administrator checks which of the two options named below is
the cause of the lock. To do this, you must log on to the SAP Solution
Manager system.
The system determined above is the source system of an acttive
Customizing distribution with editor lock in the target system
(transaction SCDT_SETUP). You can now make Customizing changes for the
selected table / view only in source system &V1&.
The system &V1& determined above is the central system (that is, the SAP
Solution Manager system) of a local lock. The selected table / view was
explicitly protected against Customizing changes in this client. You can
only make Customizing changes by removing the lock (transaction
SCDT_LOCK) or by the user-specific local assignment of the authorization
for S_TABU_DIS with activity BD.
Decide with your system administrator which solution is the right one
for you.
