Unlock SM69 By SM01

Hi,
I am a FI consultant and have a program in SAP to call the external command to execute the unixt script on unix server. My basis team has the authorization to create the external command by SM69 in our QA system. But in production, they give me a screenshot said "Transaction SM69 is locked ( in transaction SM01)" and they are requesting to unlock SM69 by SM01. I have access SM01 in DEV to test how the t-codes works. And as I don't have authorization to access SM01 in prd, I just check the table TSTC but I am confused about the information there.
Could you please help me which table shall I check for the locked t-code? Which field indicates the t-code is locked or not?
Is there any risk that I unlock the SM69 by SM01. Any table will be logged as changed?
Thank you very much.
Emma

Thnak you guys. It is really inspiring.
Here is what I do...may be a little complex to you.
1. As my host vendor has no authorization to SM01, I apply a SUPERID to host vendor.
2. Under my monitor, I give SUPERID to host vendor and ask them to unlock SM69 by SM01 and give me screenshot of the unlock action.
3. Log off from SUPERID.
4. Host vendor log on PRD and create external command by his id.
5. Host vendor log on PRD by SUPERID and lock SM69.
6. Close SUPERID.
I have gone through serveral approval processes. Trust me, the backgroud work is more these 6 steps.
Thank you again.

  • Need solution !!!!! (T-code Locked)

    Hi All,
    I want to find the user who has locked a particular transaction or from which terminal it has been locked. i have unlocked it using sm01 but i have to prepare a statistical report on that pls do help me.

    Hi Sreenivasan,
                    First Check transaction ST03N then select the system which you want.
                    Then select on the day which you want to view the details.
                     Then on the left hand side bottom you have Transaction profile
                     click on that and then on the right hand side u will find all the
                     transactions executed on that particular day then find 'SM01'
                     and double click on that you will find who all the user who have 
                     executed that transaction.

  • Unlocked Transaction still showing the same status "Locked by SM01"

    Hello Friends,
    I am facing one silly problem ,but it is considerable.
    I locked the transaction iw20 , then after some time i Unlocked that transaction.
    but, When i m executing this iw20 transaction in same server, it is giving the status "Transaction iw20 is locked by SM01 transaction" (something like that) , and the transaction is not executing.
    Though , i Unlocked the same transaction using SM01 on that server, its executing the unexpected behavior.
    Wht's going wrong with this ?
    Thanks in Advance.

    The Transaction iw20 depends on the SAPMSNUM program. I am thinking that this program is giving the problem, as the same transaction FBN1 and other dependent transactions (which also depend on the same SAPMSNUM program) give the same unexpected response.
    (Transaction * is locked by SM01)
    I have the doubt on S_NUMBER  Authorization Object...which stays common for the related transactions....may be..
    what u say...?
    Still the problem remains same...

  • Is it possible to lock and unlock a transaction?

    Hi SDN,
    Is it possible to lock and unlock a standard transaction( for eg VA02 ) through my program?( i am creating a customized version of standard transaction ) I want to lock the transaction for my user-id and then i will update the values in that transaction and finally i will unlock it.
    I got the FM for locking at the database level.is there is any FM to lock and unlock the transaction?

    Hi,
    It may not be the best way, but maybe you could use the functionality behind transaction code SM01. Here you can lock/unlock the transaction code. If you look at the program, all it is really doing is updating table TSTC field CINFO. CINFO = 80 when unlocked, CINFO = A0 when locked. You could just update the field accordingly and then call this function module right after.
    * For locking
    CALL FUNCTION 'RSAU_WRITE_SM01_LOG'
      EXPORTING
        TCODE = TSTC-TCODE
        LOCK = 'X'.
    * For unlocking
    CALL FUNCTION 'RSAU_WRITE_SM01_LOG'
      EXPORTING
        TCODE = TSTC-TCODE
        UNLOCK = 'X'.

  • Transaction FI13 is locked (in transaction SM01) - In Reality It's Not

    This tcode (FI13) is showing locked when executed in PRD, SBX, or QAS while it is not locked in DEV config clients such as DEV 010, or 040. I have checked SM01 and report RSAUDITC or RSAUDITC_BCE, it did not show that tcode is locked. Can anybody shed some light how I can unlocked or make this tcode work in PRD.

    Hi,
    As per your query if you find in sm01 the t-code is not locked it means this is locked by any programe. I found this type case earlier also, some devloper was doing experiment to lock t-code through abap programe.
    Pls cordinate with abaper if he can find the programe name.

  • Locked tcode with SM01

    Hello everyone,
    I'm trying to figure out why a tcode has been unlocked magically
    Actually, to upgrade our custom program, before transporting the change request, I decided to lock the tcode related to our program via SM01 so that end users won't have any problems if using it.
    The initial tcode was MYTCODE and was linked to PRG1.
    The upgrade was to change MYTCODE to be linked with PRG2.
    When looking at the security audit log (SM20N), the only thing I could find out, is that as soon as I transported the change request order, MYTCODE got unlocked.
    I contacted SAP Customer service and they said that STMS per se, cannot unlocked a tcode.
    So my guess is that when changing "the link", it automatically unlocked MYTCODE.
    Can anyone tell me if I'm correct ? or could give me possible other explanation ?
    Thanks and best regards,

    Hi,
    According to me when u locked a Transaction in one system any of the user can not access to that Tcode as it says it is locked in SM01 and this is irrespective to the Clients. like in which so ever Client you log in and try to access to that Tcode is throws tha same message ya.
    When you import the Change Reques to another system and here by default the Tcode is unlocked here and again you have to lock the Tcode again here.
    Kindly navigate in steps to the eror which you are facing.
    WIith Regards,

  • FM or CL to lock/unlock TCODEs

    Hi,
    i'm looking for a FM or CL to lock/unlock TCODEs via a Report.
    I don't want to do it via SM01.
    Thanks.
    Regards, Dieter

    To my knowledge, there is no function module or class/method to do this.  You can do it by doing a direct database update to table TSTC.
    The field CINFO holds the value  A0  when locked,   when unlocked, it holds the value  80 .

  • HT201328 Hi there, I purchased an Iphone 4S, it is currently locked with one carrier, I am in a contract with another carrier. I am trying to unlock the phone, but the Carrier says I have to activate it through them to unlock it. I so not want to do that,

    Hi there, my daughter purchased a used iPhone 4S from a local newspaper who has had it in the lost and found for nearly a year, and no one ever claimed it. It is locked with Telus, my daughter is a Virgin Mobile customer. Telus told me they will only unlock it if she activates it with them, she cannot do that as she is in a contract with Virgin. Is there anything I can do to get around this problem?

    Only the carrier to which the iPhone is locked can unlock it. In
    this case, you must work with Telus. If they have a pay as you go
    plan, activate the iPhone on Telus that way and then after
    you meet whatever requirements Telus has, stop using Telus
    and move the iPhone to Virgin. Or sell the iPhone to someone
    who can use it on Telus.
    Telus is the only one who can unlock that iPhone.

  • HT201328 I have been given permission for unlocking my iphone 3 GS from Orange. I want to set up the phone for my wife to use with a new number and carrier. Do I unlock under my itunes account first or set one up for her and then unlock the phone.

    I have been given permission for unlocking my iphone 3 GS from Orange. I want to set up the phone for my wife to use with a new number and carrier. Do I unlock under my itunes account first ( I now have a new iphone on this account) or set one up for her and then unlock the phone. I am worried about upsetting the new phone.

    I would complete unlocking as is and then
    restore as new once you know the iPhone is unlocked
    Be aware Orange will process the request at their speed
    one of the reasons they usually reside at bottom of User Sat surveys
    will likely take weeks
    This may also help

  • HT1414 i am in the process of getting my iphone4 unlocked from att to use it on straighttalk. why do i need to "back up" the iphone and all of this? i dont have an apple computer sooo, im a little confused on why i need to do this. can someone please help

    Can someone please explain and help me? I am unlocking an iphone4 from at&amp;t to use it on the straight talk network. They've confirmed my request to do this and I am now a little confused as to what to do next. They want me to back up the phone using itunes on either a MAC or PC. I do not have an aplle computer but I do have an acer. Sooo, can I use it to do this? Or do I even have to do this to unlock and switch the iphone4 over to a new network? If I do have to what can I do to do this because like I said I do not have a computer by apple? Can anybody walk me through what I need to do next please? I've been waiting to do this for a very long time and I now have the option to have an iphone and use it. Thanks to my awesome boyfriend who Gave me his old iphone when he swapped back to an android. Hahahaha! Please anybody!? Because I sooo don't know what I'm doing and really do not want to mess the phone Or the process up. Thanks to any and all who read this and help me! It is greatly appreciate it!

    Install iTunes on your Acer and you can back up the iPhone. Or back it up to iCloud. If you do not back it up you can get it unlocked, but you will lose all of your content.
    You can get iTunes from http://www.apple.com/itunes.
    Even after unlocking I'm not sure it will work on Straight Talk, because last time I checked ST used Verizon as its carrier, and an AT&T iPhone 4 is not compatible with Verizon's network. You can probably use it on Net 10 or T-Mobile once it is unlocked.
