  Missing Transportation Lane: The transportation lane for the specified product may not be defined in the system.
  Inactive Transportation Lane: The transportation lane exists but is inactive or not valid for the planning period.
  Product-Specific Settings: The product may not be assigned to the transportation lane due to specific settings or restrictions.
  Location Issues: The source or destination location in the transportation lane may not be compatible with the product.
  Master Data Issues: There may be inconsistencies or missing data in the master data related to the product or transportation lane.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Transportation Lane Configuration:

  Ensure that the transportation lane is defined for the source and destination locations and is active.
  
  
  
  Verify Product Assignment:
