• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /UI2/FDM110 - Catalog &1: Locked by &2 ?

  The SAP error message /UI2/FDM110 Catalog &1: Locked by &2 typically indicates that a specific catalog (identified by &1) is currently locked by another user or process (identified by &2). This can occur in various scenarios, particularly when multiple users are trying to access or modify the same catalog in the SAP Fiori Launchpad or related applications.
  Cause:
  
  Concurrent Access: Another user is currently editing or has locked the catalog, preventing others from making changes.
  System Processes: Background jobs or system processes may have locked the catalog for maintenance or updates.
  Session Issues: A previous session may not have released the lock properly, leading to a lingering lock.
  
  Solution:
  
  Wait and Retry: If the lock is temporary (e.g., another user is editing), wait for a while and then try again.
  Check Lock Status: Use transaction code SM12 to check for locks in the system. You can look for the user &2 to see if they are still active and if the lock can be released.
  Contact the User: If you identify the user who has locked the catalog, you can reach out to them to see if they can release the lock.
  Release Locks: If necessary, an administrator can manually release the lock using transaction SM12, but this should be done with caution to avoid data inconsistencies.
  Review Background Jobs: Check if any background jobs are running that might be locking the catalog and wait for them to complete.
  System Restart: In rare cases, a system restart may be required to clear persistent locks, but this should be done as a last resort and with proper planning.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with transaction codes like SM12 (to view and manage locks) and SM21 (to check system logs for any related issues).
