  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TRQ0202 - Position is locked ?

    The SAP error message TRQ0202, which states "Position is locked," typically occurs in the context of SAP's organizational management or personnel administration modules. This error indicates that the position you are trying to access or modify is currently locked, preventing any changes or updates.

    Causes:

    1. User Locking: The position may be locked by another user who is currently editing or processing data related to that position.
    2. System Locking: The system may have automatically locked the position due to a transaction that is in progress or due to a background job that is running.
    3. Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access or modify the position, leading to a perceived lock.
    4. Data Consistency Checks: The system may have locked the position to ensure data consistency during updates or changes.

    Solutions:

    1. Check for Active Sessions: Verify if another user is currently working on the position. If so, wait for them to complete their task.
    2. Transaction Monitoring: Use transaction codes like SM12 (to check for locks) or SM21 (to check system logs) to identify if there are any active locks on the position.
    3. Release Locks: If you have the necessary authorizations, you can manually release the lock using transaction SM12. Be cautious when doing this, as it may disrupt another user's work.
    4. Check Authorizations: Ensure that you have the appropriate authorizations to access or modify the position. If not, contact your SAP security administrator to request the necessary permissions.
    5. System Restart: In some cases, a system restart or a refresh of the session may resolve temporary locking issues.
