Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) is a comprehensive suite of integrated business applications designed to help organizations manage their business processes. It includes modules for finance, human resources, supply chain, and more, providing a unified platform for enterprise resource planning (ERP).
While using Oracle EBS, you might encounter the error message: FRM-40654: Record has been updated by another user. This error typically occurs when attempting to update a record that has been modified by another user after it was initially queried.
When this error occurs, you will see a pop-up message indicating that the record you are trying to update has already been changed by another user. This prevents you from saving your changes until the issue is resolved.
The FRM-40654 error is a concurrency issue that arises in multi-user environments. It happens when:
This error is a safeguard to ensure data integrity, preventing users from overwriting each other's changes unknowingly.
To resolve this error, follow these steps:
First, re-query the record to fetch the latest data from the database. This ensures you have the most current version of the record before making any updates.
-- Example SQL to re-query a record
SELECT * FROM your_table WHERE record_id = :record_id;
After re-querying, review the changes made by the other user. Determine if your intended updates are still valid or need adjustment based on the new data.
Once you have the latest data and have reviewed necessary changes, proceed to apply your updates. Ensure that your changes do not conflict with those made by the other user.
After applying your updates, save the record. If no further changes have been made by others, your updates should be successful.
