A specific customizing transport request follows the Semantic Business Configuration Lock (SBCL) process, when configuration changes are saved in the Development system, locks are automatically created in the Test and Production systems, these locks prevent further configuration changes and can only be released by importing the transport request containing the SBCL tokens into the target systems 

To resolve this, revert the configuration changes in the customizing tenant of the development system, and then import the transport into the test and production systems to release the locks.
