  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMTMS/PLN_OPT_APP502 - Means of transport &1 is not a schedule but is used in a schedule ?
    The SAP error message /SCMTMS/PLN_OPT_APP502 indicates that there is a conflict in the configuration of a means of transport in the Transportation Management (TM) module. Specifically, it means that the means of transport (e.g., a truck, ship, etc.) is defined as a non-scheduled transport but is being used in a scheduling context. Cause: Configuration Issue: The means of transport is set up in the system as a non-scheduled transport, which means it is not intended to have a defined schedule (e.g., fixed routes, times). Usage in Scheduling: Despite being configured as non-scheduled, it is being referenced in a scheduling scenario, such as a transportation plan or a shipment that requires a schedule. Solution: To resolve this error, you can take the following steps: Check the Configuration of the Means of Transport: Go to the configuration settings for the means of transport in SAP TM. Verify if the means of transport is set as a scheduled or non-scheduled transport. Adjust the Transport Type: If the means of transport should indeed be scheduled, change its configuration to reflect that it is a scheduled transport. If it should remain as a non-scheduled transport, ensure that it is not being used in any scheduling context. Review Transportation Planning: Check the transportation planning documents or schedules where this means of transport is being referenced. Remove or replace the means of transport in any scheduling context if it is not supposed to be used that
