    I have seen Lock on Projects "SRM_PROJECTS" record in PRLOCK table couple of time and wanted to know what is this and How would be the error.

     

    The table is giving following Information

    PRNAME:- prImportExport

    PRRECORDID and PRRESOURCEID.

     

    Does it mean the Resource cannot access the whole Project ? or will gets Lock button like how we get when Process locks it.

    prImportExport is when the project is open read/write in OpenWorkbench, MSP or the Gantt editor

    I'm not sure what else you expect me to "describe" - this is not an error, this is just the way the application works.

    (It is preventing a user updating project plans whilst another user is also updating project plans)

    When a project is locked, it means that that that user is working on that project. At a time, only one user can update a projects/plans. Suppose, if any operation is performing by a process on a project using xog gel script, that project is not available to edit for other users till it complete the process.
