I see two likely ways an insert can fail here:

1)      The CASHBOXID doesn’t exist or has been inserted in another transaction that is not yet committed

(possible solution: insert into CASH_CASHBOX and CASH_CASHBOX_DAY_AMMOUNT in the same transaction)

2)      A record with the same CASHBOXID and DATE_TIME already exists

Can be avoided by using a new field populated through a generator as the primary key – but you would then probably have to also implement a ‘duplicate resolution’-button or similar in your program to fix up those cases where there are several records with the same CASHBOXID and DATE_TIME

Either of these ought to give you an error message (which would be good to post on this list).

Your problem could of course be related to something completely different (like Mark suggests – or something stupid like the user having no insert rights to the table), but if it is the inserts themselves that are the problem, I see no other possible reason for a lock conflict.
