  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/FAG_MSG849 indicates that there is an issue with the operation type for a Request for Quotation (RFQ) in the context of SAP Transportation Management (TM). Specifically, the error states that the operation type for the RFQ type is set to "per item," but more than one RFQ item has been selected, which is not allowed in this context.

  RFQ Configuration: The RFQ type configuration in the system is set to handle operations on a per-item basis. This means that each RFQ item should be processed individually.

  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Single Selection: Ensure that you are selecting only one RFQ item at a time for processing. This aligns with the configuration that requires operations to be handled on a per-item basis.

  Navigating to the relevant configuration settings in SAP.
  Checking the settings for the RFQ type in question to see if it can be modified to allow multiple item processing.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Review the SAP documentation or help resources related to RFQ types and their configurations to understand the implications of the settings.

  User Roles and Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary roles and authorizations to perform actions on RFQs, as restrictions may also lead to errors.
