Diagnosis
You attempted to change ABAP/4 source code, but the author or last user has locked this against further changes by setting the editor lock.

System Response
You are not allowed to change the ABAP/4 source code, but can view it in display mode.

Procedure
You can change the ABAP/4 code only when the user who set the editor lock has canceled it.

 

SCC4 and SE06 settings are OK on your system (other objects handled by the note can be edited). Still you're not able to proceed with the note implementation.
