The SAP error message
/BEV4/PLPEND227
indicates that the system is unable to unlock the table/BEV4/PLDANFABS
for a specific sales organization (VKORG &1
). This error typically occurs in the context of the SAP IS-Oil module, particularly when dealing with pricing or contract management.Cause:
- Table Locking: The table
/BEV4/PLDANFABS
is likely locked by another process or user. This can happen if another transaction is currently accessing or modifying the data in that table.- Database Issues: There may be underlying database issues that prevent the unlocking of the table.
- Transaction Errors: If a previous transaction did not complete successfully, it might have left the table in a locked state.
- Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to unlock the table.
Solution:
- Check for Locks: Use transaction code
SM12
to check for any existing locks on the table/BEV4/PLDANFABS
. If you find locks that are no longer needed, you can delete them (if you have the necessary authorizations).- Wait and Retry: If the lock is held by another user or process, you may need to wait for that process to complete before trying again.
- Review Transaction Logs: Check transaction logs or system logs for any errors that might indicate why the table is locked.
- Restart the Transaction: If the error occurred during a specific transaction, try restarting that transaction after ensuring that no locks are present.
- Contact Basis Team: If the issue persists, it may be necessary to involve your SAP Basis team to investigate any underlying database issues or to check for system inconsistencies.
- Check Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to perform the action that is causing the error.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
