  VPK1003: Pricing &1 blocked by user &2
  
  Cause
  This error occurs when a user tries to access or change pricing conditions in a sales document (such as a sales order or quotation), but the pricing procedure or pricing data is currently locked by another user. SAP uses locks to prevent simultaneous changes to the same data, ensuring data consistency and avoiding conflicts.
  
  &1: Represents the pricing element or pricing procedure that is locked.
  &2: Represents the user ID who currently holds the lock.
  
  
  Explanation
  
  When a user is working on pricing in a sales document, SAP places a lock on the pricing data.
  If another user tries to access or modify the same pricing data before the first user finishes and releases the lock, this error message appears.
  This locking mechanism prevents inconsistent or conflicting changes to pricing conditions.
