Normally, only components of objects are edited.
Before a request lock is applied to a component of an object, a
temporary lock is set for the entire object. This prevents conflict
when request locks are being set synchronously for the components.

If the error occurs again, contact user &V2&.
When this user has removed the temporary lock from object &V1&, you can

user &V2&.
