• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TR_AUSL175 - Delivery &1 is currently being edited by user &2 ?

  The SAP error message TR_AUSL175 indicates that a delivery document (identified by &1) is currently being edited by another user (identified by &2). This typically occurs in scenarios where multiple users are trying to access or modify the same delivery document simultaneously, leading to a lock situation.
  Cause:
  
  Concurrent Access: Another user has opened the delivery document for editing, which locks the document for other users to prevent data inconsistencies.
  Session Timeout: If a user has left a session open for an extended period, it may still hold a lock on the document.
  System Configuration: The system may be configured to lock documents during certain operations to ensure data integrity.
  
  Solution:
  
  Wait and Retry: The simplest solution is to wait for the other user to finish editing the document. Once they save and exit, you should be able to access the document.
  Identify the User: If you need immediate access, you can identify the user who is editing the document. You can use transaction codes like SM12 (to view locks) or SM21 (to check system logs) to find out more about the user holding the lock.
  Contact the User: If possible, contact the user who is editing the document and ask them to save their changes or exit the document.
  Release the Lock: If the user is no longer available and the lock is still in place, a system administrator can manually release the lock using transaction SM12. However, this should be done with caution to avoid data loss.
  Check for Background Jobs: Sometimes, background jobs may also hold locks. Check if any background processes are running that might be affecting the document.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Lock Management: Understanding how SAP handles locks can help in troubleshooting similar issues. Locks are typically managed at the database level to ensure data consistency.
  User Training: Educating users about proper session management and the importance of closing documents when not in use can help reduce the occurrence of such errors.
  System Performance: If this error occurs frequently, it may indicate performance issues or a need for better user management practices within the organization.
  
  If the problem persists or if you encounter this error frequently, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP Basis team or technical support for further investigation and resolution.
