Available with Location Referencing license.
The LRS Locks table allows you to review and release line, route, and event locks.
Tip:
You can also release locks with the Release Locks tool.
You can differentiate between the lock types by looking at the contents of the Event column. If a cell in the Event column contains a value, the lock is an event lock. If a cell in the Event column is blank, the lock is a route or line lock.
The following is an example of event and route locks in the LRS Locks table:

Item | Lock type |
---|---|
![]() | Route or Line |
![]() | Event |

Impact of the user and version on releasable status
The releasable status reported in the LRS Locks table is dependent on the user signed in and the version being edited.
The following is an example of the LRS Locks table with user22 signed in using Version2:
The numbers in the image above correspond to the numbers in the following table:
1 | The locks were acquired by user22 using Version2, and their edits were saved, resulting in a releasable status value of On Post. |
2 | The locks were acquired by user22 using Version2, and they didn't save any edits, resulting in a releasable status value of Yes. |
3 | The locks were acquired by user11 using Version1, and the signed-in user (user22) didn't acquire the locks, resulting in a releasable status value of No. |
The following is an example of the LRS Locks table with user11 signed in using Version1:
The numbers in the image above correspond to the numbers in the following table:
1 | The lock was acquired by user11 using Version1, and they didn't save any edits, resulting in a releasable status value of Yes. |
2 | The locks were acquired by user22 using Version2, and the signed-in user (user11) didn't acquire the locks, resulting in a releasable status value of No. |
Release locks
You can release locks in the LRS Locks table if the Releasable column value is Yes.
The following table describes the releasable status values:
Releasable status | Reason |
---|---|
Yes | The lock is owned by the user who is signed in (in any version), and the route or event has not been edited. |
On Post | The lock is owned by the user who is signed in (in any version), and the route or event has been edited. |
No | The lock is owned by another user. |
