  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/OO_VSVM007 with the description "Only one active means of transport is possible" typically occurs in the context of SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO), particularly when dealing with transportation planning.
  Cause:
  This error usually arises when the system detects that there are multiple means of transport defined for a particular transportation lane or route, but the configuration or the planning scenario only allows for one active means of transport at a time. This can happen due to:

  Adjust Planning Parameters:
  
  Review the planning parameters in the APO system to ensure they are set correctly to allow for the intended transportation planning scenario.
