Object Lock Manager

Object locks are used to prevent two Lucity Administration users from editing the same form at the same time.

If a user obtained a lock on an object and did not close the program correctly (due to a power outage, network problem, etc.), then the lock should clear on its own at the end of the expiration period defined in the Object Locking Dialog. Failing that, the administrator can clear object locks in the Object Lock Manager.

Displays the date and time the lock is scheduled to expire.

Machine

Identifies the name of the computer used to lock the object.

Intention

Describes the reason the lock was generated. If a record is being deleted, a Delete lock is obtained. If a record is being edited, an Update lock is obtained.

Refresh

Refreshes the data in the Object Lock Manager. A refresh is necessary to see any changes.

Release Locks

Releases any currently selected locks.

Note: Locks that are shaded in gray cannot be cleared from this grid. Locks may be grayed-out for the following reasons:

  • Delete locks are always grayed-out. They are cleared by the system when the scheduled nightly tasks run.
  • Locks that have been obtained within the last five minutes are grayed-out. They are assumed to be still in use.
