• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /BDL/D-091 - Service & & currently locked by & ?

  The SAP error message /BDL/D-091 Service & & currently locked by & typically indicates that a specific service is currently locked by another user or process. This can happen in various scenarios, such as when a user is editing or processing a service, and another user tries to access it simultaneously.
  Cause:
  
  Concurrent Access: Another user or process is currently using the service, which prevents other users from making changes or accessing it.
  Session Timeout: A previous session may not have released the lock due to a timeout or an unexpected termination.
  System Errors: Sometimes, system errors or crashes can leave a lock in place, preventing access to the service.
  
  Solution:
  
  Wait and Retry: If the lock is temporary, waiting for the other user to finish their work may resolve the issue. You can try accessing the service again after some time.
  Identify the Locking User: Use transaction codes like SM12 (for lock entries) to identify which user or process is holding the lock. You can then communicate with that user to understand the situation.
  Release the Lock: If you have the necessary authorizations, you can manually delete the lock entry in SM12. However, this should be done with caution, as it may disrupt the work of the user currently holding the lock.
  Check for Background Jobs: Sometimes, background jobs may hold locks. Check transaction SM37 to see if any jobs are running that might be causing the lock.
  System Restart: In rare cases, a system restart may be necessary to clear persistent locks, but this should be done as a last resort and typically requires coordination with your SAP Basis team.
