How to reprocess the Bdocs with “object locked” errors

[former_member182985]

Normally, when multiple users update a same object at the same time, there will be such kinds of Bdoc errors, for instance, “Business Partner XXX is currently being processed by XXX” or “Object requested is currently locked by user XXX”. Since the object is being edit and already locked by the current queue, other queues try to edit the same object fails and result in lock error in the Bdoc.

In order to resolve these kind of Bdoc errors (caused by locked object), it is possible to schedule a job to reprocess them in bulk via T-code SMW20. The report RSMWAPP01 is also the same. You could schedule this report to run periodically in the background. Using this report, you can specify Bdocs based on Bdoc type and Bdoc state as the input parameters.

In addition, there are some other middleware parameters can help resolving this kind of error.

You can maintain the following parameters in table SMOFPARSFA via T-code SM30 for cases where the Bdoc is only temporarily blocked.
