• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMTMS/DO_TRNSPCHRG052 - Currency at charge item level does not match with freight order ?

  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/DO_TRNSPCHRG052 indicates that there is a mismatch between the currency used at the charge item level and the currency of the freight order in the Transportation Management System (TMS). This can occur when you are trying to process or post charges related to a freight order, and the system detects that the currencies do not align.
  Cause:
  
  Currency Mismatch: The charge items (e.g., freight charges, surcharges) are defined in a different currency than the currency of the freight order.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the TMS that do not align with the expected currency settings for the freight order and charge items.
  Data Entry Errors: Manual entry errors when creating charge items or freight orders can lead to discrepancies in currency.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Currency Settings:
  
  Verify the currency settings for both the freight order and the charge items. Ensure that they are set to the same currency.
  You can do this by navigating to the relevant freight order and checking the currency field, as well as the charge item details.
  
  
  
  Adjust Charge Items:
  
  If the charge items are in a different currency, you may need to either change the currency of the charge items to match the freight order or create new charge items in the correct currency.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration:
  
  Check the configuration settings in TMS to ensure that the currency settings are correctly defined. This may involve reviewing the settings in the customizing transaction (SPRO) for TMS.
  
  
  
  Data Consistency:
  
  Ensure that all related documents (e.g., purchase orders, invoices) are consistent in terms of currency. If there are discrepancies, they should be corrected.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on handling currency issues in TMS.
