3583546 - Another user is currently locking Account &1 in Chart of Accounts YCOA - SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Symptom

  • An error occurs when attempting to edit a G/L Account in the Manage G/L Account Master Data application.
  • The error message displayed is "Another user is currently locking Account &1 in Chart of Accounts YCOA".

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Log into the Manage G/L Account Master Data application.
  2. Filter by YCOA chart of accounts.
  3. Filter by the account number * and try to edit it.

Cause

The issue arises due to a lock in place whenever there is an open draft in the successor app 'Manage Operating G/L Accounts'. This is to prevent the same account from being changed simultaneously in both apps.

Resolution

  1. Access the 'Manage Operating G/L Accounts' application.
  2. Click on Edit to access the existing draft.
  3. Discard the existing draft. This action should resolve the locked issue.
