  The SAP error message /ISDFPS/FDP_REL050 indicates that a relocation step is already assigned to another relocation. This typically occurs in the context of the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) or the SAP Integrated Business Planning (IBP) modules, where relocation steps are used to manage the movement of goods within a warehouse or between locations.
  Cause:
  The error is triggered when you attempt to assign a relocation step that is already linked to a different relocation process. This can happen due to:
  
  Attempting to reassign a relocation step that is currently in use.
  A configuration issue where the same relocation step is mistakenly set up for multiple relocations.

  Solution:

  Check Current Assignments:
  
  Review the current assignments of the relocation step in question. You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction or report that displays relocation steps and their assignments.
  
  
  
  Identify Conflicts:
  
  Identify which relocation the step is currently assigned to. You may need to check the status of that relocation to see if it is still active or if it can be completed or canceled.
  
  
  
  Reassign or Modify:
  
  If the relocation step is no longer needed for the original relocation, you can either complete or cancel that relocation to free up the step.
  If the step is still needed, consider creating a new relocation step for the new relocation task instead of trying to reuse the existing one.
