• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMTMS/FAG_MSG142 - Validity period of tariff &1 prohibits use ?

  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/FAG_MSG142 indicates that there is an issue with the validity period of a tariff in the Transportation Management (TM) module. Specifically, the error message states that the validity period of the specified tariff (denoted by &1) prohibits its use for the current transaction or operation.
  Cause:
  
  Tariff Validity Period: The tariff you are trying to use has a defined validity period that does not include the date of the transaction. This could mean that the tariff is either expired or not yet active.

  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the tariff settings that need to be addressed.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Tariff Validity:
  
  Go to the tariff management section in SAP TM and check the validity dates of the tariff in question. Ensure that the current date falls within the defined validity period.
  If the tariff is expired, you may need to create a new tariff or extend the validity of the existing one.
  
  
  
  Adjust Transaction Dates:

  Review Configuration:
  
  If you have access to the configuration settings, review the settings related to tariffs to ensure they are correctly defined and that there are no discrepancies.
