• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMTMS/CFIR135 - FWSD &1 in intermediate status; FWO &2 ignored in change process ?

  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/CFIR135 typically relates to the Transportation Management (TM) module in SAP, specifically dealing with Freight Order (FWO) processing. The error indicates that a Freight Order (FWO) is in an intermediate status, which prevents it from being processed further in the change process.
  Cause:
  
  
  Intermediate Status: The FWO is in a status that does not allow for changes or further processing. This could be due to various reasons, such as:
  
  The FWO is currently being processed or is locked by another transaction.
  The FWO has not been fully confirmed or has pending actions that need to be completed.
  There may be dependencies on other documents or processes that have not been resolved.
  
  
  
  Configuration Issues: There might be configuration settings in the TM module that restrict changes to FWOs in certain statuses.
  
  
  Data Integrity Issues: There could be inconsistencies or errors in the data associated with the FWO that prevent it from being processed.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check FWO Status: Review the status of the Freight Order in the SAP TM system. Ensure that it is not locked or in a status that prevents changes. You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction in SAP TM and checking the status of the FWO.
  
  
  Complete Pending Actions: If there are any pending actions or confirmations required for the FWO, complete those first. This may involve confirming deliveries, updating shipment details, or resolving any issues that are preventing the FWO from being processed.
  
  
  Unlock the FWO: If the FWO is locked by another transaction, you may need to wait for that transaction to complete or contact the user who is processing it to unlock it.
  
  
  Review Configuration: If the issue persists, review the configuration settings in the TM module to ensure that they allow for the necessary changes to be made to FWOs in the current status.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to the specific error message for additional guidance and troubleshooting steps.
