Why EqDeal locks a company

EqDeal temporarily blocks most company-changing actions while an issuance workflow is processing. This prevents simultaneous edits from producing inconsistent ownership results.

What to do

  1. Do not retry the same action repeatedly or start a competing change.
  2. Allow the issuance process to finish, then refresh the company page.
  3. Review the round and cap table to confirm the final state.
  4. If the lock remains unexpectedly, contact support with the company and round names.
Do not work around the lock

The lock protects cap-table integrity. Bypassing it through another interface or integration can create conflicting operations.
