• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message USMD_GOV_API350 - Hierarchy &1 in &2 hierarchy assignment is locked by change request &3 ?

  The SAP error message USMD_GOV_API350 indicates that a hierarchy assignment is locked due to an active change request. This typically occurs in the context of SAP Master Data Governance (MDG) when you are trying to make changes to a hierarchy that is currently being modified or is under review in a change request.
  
  Cause:
  
  Active Change Request: The hierarchy you are trying to modify is locked because it is part of an active change request. This means that another user or process is currently working on that hierarchy, preventing you from making changes.
  Locking Mechanism: SAP uses a locking mechanism to ensure data integrity. When a change request is created, it locks the relevant objects to prevent concurrent modifications.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Active Change Requests: 
  
  Use transaction code SWI1 (Work Item Selection) or SWI2_FREQ (Work Items) to check for active change requests that might be locking the hierarchy.
  Identify the change request that is locking the hierarchy
