Reconcile Issue: Another Application Currently Editing Message

Question

When I attempt to reconcile, I get the message "Another application is currently editing the version."

I have been editing and reconciled/posted this morning with no issues. This problem occurs intermittently, with no changes in program usage. It occurred a few weeks ago to me and is occurring again. A team mate has reported she now had the issue with her ArcGIS Pro.

Right now the solution has just been wait and see.

I'm using version ArcGIS Pro 2.8.3.

@MalleCarrasco-Harris1 did you resolve the issue? as i faced the same error, the reason of it is that i was trying to reconcile the WO then the application closed suddenly while the reconcile does not completed, once i tried to reconcile it again i face that error.

Thank you, I'll try this solution. The problem is intermittent, I am not sure what triggers it, so I will leave this unresolved until I can find something that works.

I'd start with seeing who/when locks are being acquired.  Worse comes to worse, you can kill the lock and then do a reconcile/post.  You can read more about how to manage geodatabase locks here.
