• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message THMHR_ADMIN120 - Hedge &1 in company code &2 is being edited by user &3 ?

  The SAP error message THMHR_ADMIN120 indicates that a hedge (or hedging relationship) in a specific company code is currently being edited by another user. This is a common issue in multi-user environments where multiple users may attempt to access or modify the same data simultaneously.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when:
  
  A user tries to edit a hedge relationship that is already being modified by another user.
  The system locks the hedge relationship to prevent data inconsistencies and ensure data integrity.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Wait and Retry: If the other user is actively working on the hedge relationship, the simplest solution is to wait until they finish their work and release the lock. You can then try to access the hedge relationship again.
  
  
  Identify the User: If you need to know who is currently editing the hedge, you can check the user session in the SAP system. You may need the help of your SAP Basis team or system administrator to identify the user and coordinate with them.
  
  
  Contact the User: If you know the user who is editing the hedge, you can reach out to them to see if they can finish their work or release the lock.
  
  
  Use Transaction SM12: If you have the necessary authorizations, you can use transaction code SM12 to view and manage lock entries. This transaction allows you to see which user is holding the lock and potentially release it if necessary (though this should be done with caution to avoid data inconsistencies).
  
  
  Check for Background Jobs: Sometimes, background jobs may also hold locks on certain data. Check if there are any background processes that might be causing the lock.
  
  
  Review System Configuration: If this issue occurs frequently, it may be worth reviewing the system configuration and user access to ensure that it aligns with your business processes.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as SM12 (for lock entries), SM21 (for system logs), and ST22 (for dumps) to troubleshoot further.
  User Roles and Authorizations: Ensure that users have the appropriate roles and authorizations to access and edit hedge relationships without causing conflicts.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for more detailed information on hedge management and related transactions.
  
  If the problem persists or if you are unsure about taking any actions, it is advisable to consult with your SAP support team or a qualified SAP consultant for assistance.
