There are a few reasons for Locked Batches in Munis but this is by design to protect sites financial data from corruption.

• Multiple users are trying to access the same batch from different programs
• Server connectivity
• In newer versions of Munis 2017.1 and beyond, users may search and select a number of batches which locks them in the system for posting. If the user leaves their desk or closes out of Munis abruptly, this will lock the batches.
