    2. Modify Document: If possible, modify the transportation document to remove or reassign items that are causing the issue before attempting to split it again.
    3. Consult Configuration: Check the configuration settings in SAP TM to see if there are specific rules that prevent splitting documents with finalized capacity items. Adjust these settings if necessary and if it aligns with business processes.
