  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message USMD_FIN_S4MIG028 - &1 &2 is currently locked by change request &3. ?

    The SAP error message USMD_FIN_S4MIG028 indicates that a specific object (usually a data object or a configuration object) is currently locked by a change request. This typically occurs during data migration or when changes are being made to the system, and it prevents other users or processes from accessing or modifying the locked object.

    Cause:

    1. Change Request Locking: The object is locked because it is being modified as part of a change request. This is a common scenario in SAP systems where changes are managed through transport requests.
    2. Concurrent Access: Another user or process is currently working on the same object, leading to a lock.
    3. Incomplete Transactions: If a previous transaction did not complete successfully, it might leave the object in a locked state.

    Solution:

    1. Identify the Lock: Use transaction code SM12 to check for locks in the system. You can filter by user or object to find out who or what is holding the lock.
    2. Release the Lock: If you have the necessary authorizations, you can manually release the lock from the SM12 transaction. Be cautious when doing this, as it may affect other users or processes.
    3. Check Change Requests: Review the change requests in transaction SE09 or SE10 to see if the object is part of an active change request. If so, you may need to wait for the changes to be completed or coordinate with the user who is working on it.
    4. Communicate with Team Members: If the lock is due to another user, communicate with them to understand their progress and whether they can release the lock.
    5. System Restart: In some cases, a system restart may be necessary if the lock persists and cannot be resolved through the above methods.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:
      • SM12: To view and manage locks.
      • SE09/SE10: To manage transport requests.
    • SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address specific issues related to this error message.
    • Documentation: Review SAP documentation related to change requests and locking mechanisms for a deeper understanding of how locks are managed in the system.

    If the issue persists after trying the above solutions, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP Basis team or SAP support for further assistance.
