  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SXMS_HC054 - Filter & hasn't been locked. Another user might be affected. ?

    The SAP error message SXMS_HC054 indicates that a filter in the SAP Exchange Infrastructure (XI) or Process Integration (PI) has not been locked, which can lead to potential conflicts if multiple users attempt to modify the same filter simultaneously. This error typically arises in scenarios where users are trying to edit or activate filters in the Integration Directory or in the Integration Builder.

    Cause:

    1. Concurrent Access: Another user is currently editing the same filter, which prevents your changes from being applied.
    2. Session Issues: Sometimes, a session may not have been properly closed, leaving the filter in an unlocked state.
    3. System Locking Mechanism: The locking mechanism in SAP may not have been triggered correctly, leading to the filter being available for editing by multiple users.

    Solution:

    1. Check for Other Users: Verify if another user is currently editing the filter. If so, wait for them to finish and try again.
    2. Refresh the Session: Log out and log back into the SAP system to refresh your session. This can sometimes resolve locking issues.
    3. Use Transaction SM12: You can check for any existing locks on the filter using transaction code SM12. Look for locks related to the filter and, if appropriate, delete the lock entries (ensure that you have the necessary authorizations and that it is safe to do so).
    4. Contact Basis Team: If the issue persists, it may be necessary to contact your SAP Basis team. They can investigate further and may need to manually release the lock or check for any underlying issues in the system.
    5. Check for System Updates: Ensure that your SAP system is up to date with the latest patches and updates, as some locking issues may be resolved in newer versions.

    Related Information:

    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes related to the error message SXMS_HC054 for any specific fixes or recommendations provided by SAP.
    • Documentation: Review the SAP documentation for XI/PI regarding filter management and locking mechanisms to better understand how to manage filters effectively.
