Available with Location Referencing license.
The LRS Locks table allows you to view, acquire, and release route and event locks.
The Locks Table button on theĀ Location Referencing tab is available if an LRS Network from a conflict prevention-enabled LRS is added to the Contents pane. Click the Locks Table button to open the table.
The easiest way to differentiate between the lock types is to look 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 lock.
The following is an example of event and route locks in the LRS Locks table:
The LRS Locks table contains route, line, and event locks. The easiest way to differentiate between the lock types is to look at the contents of the Event column. If a cell in this column is populated, it is an event lock (point 2 above). If a cell in the event column is blank, it is a route or line lock (point 1 above).

Filter the LRS Locks table
You can filter the locks in the LRS Locks table using the Network, User, Version, Event, and Route columns. The filters can be used individually or in combination to show only those locks that meet the conditions. Complete these steps to filter the LRS Locks table:
- Choose filter values in the drop-down lists as necessary.
The filter values you choose are highlighted in blue, indicating they have not been applied.
- Click Apply.
The LRS Locks table is filtered based on the filter values.
Releasing locks
Locks can only be released if the value in the Releasable column is Yes.
Description of the Releasable column in the locks table
Releasable status | Reason |
---|---|
Yes | The lock is owned by the logged-in user (in any version), and the route or event has not been edited. |
On Post | The lock is owned by the logged-in user (in any version), and the route or event has been edited. |
No | The lock is owned by another user. |
To release a lock, choose a row with a releasable status value of Yes and click the Release selected locks button . Alternatively, you can click the Release all releasable locks button to release all locks with a releasable status value of Yes without selecting any rows.
Impact of the user and version on releasable status
The releasable status reported in the locks table is dependent on the logged-in user and database version being edited.
The following is an example of the LRS Locks table with user22 logged in using Version2.
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 of Yes. |
3 | The locks were acquired by user11 using Version1, and the logged-in user (user22) didn't acquire the lock, resulting in a releasable status of No. |
The following is an example of the LRS Locks table with user11 logged in using Version1:
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 logged-in user (user11) didn't acquire the locks, resulting in a releasable status of No. |
