  Wait for Release: If the lock is due to another user or process, you may need to wait until that process is completed and the lock is released.
  Contact Administrator: If you find that the lock is not being released or if it is held by a user session that is no longer active, you may need to contact your SAP system administrator to manually release the lock.
  Review Processes: Ensure that any ongoing processes that might lock the warehouse are completed or properly managed to avoid unnecessary locking.
