In 35 years of coding RPG I have never seen this happen; with or without commitment control. Whenever we found a problem with a record being locked, it always turned out to be an error in the code.

I suggest you remove the UNLOCKs and try to find out what really was the problem.

Been there, done that. Have no idea. The lock is removed only after another record is locked from

If you want to try yourself, source code is here: https://github.com/PoC-dev/as400-sfltemplates-german

I signed on twice, started the program, and put up the edit screen on one record. When trying to do the same with the second signon, with the same record, I got a "record already locked" error. That's when I added the UNLOCKs.
