• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMTMS/PLN_VSR_OL062 - &1 excluded because document is planned on an excluded capacity document ?

  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/PLN_VSR_OL062 indicates that a specific document (in this case, represented by &1) has been excluded from planning because it is associated with a capacity document that has been marked as excluded. This typically occurs in the context of SAP Transportation Management (TM) when planning transportation activities.
  Cause:
  
  
  Excluded Capacity Document: The primary cause of this error is that the document you are trying to plan is linked to a capacity document that has been excluded from planning. This could be due to various reasons, such as:
  
  The capacity document is not valid for the planning period.
  The capacity document has been manually excluded by a user.
  The capacity document is associated with a resource that is not available for the planned time frame.
  
  
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the system that dictate which capacity documents are available for planning. If these settings are not aligned with your planning requirements, it can lead to exclusions.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Capacity Document Status: Review the capacity document associated with the excluded document. Ensure that it is valid and not marked as excluded. You can do this by:
  
  Navigating to the relevant capacity document in SAP TM.
  Checking its status and any exclusion settings.
  
  
  
  Adjust Planning Parameters: If the capacity document is valid but still excluded, you may need to adjust the planning parameters or settings in your SAP TM configuration to include the necessary capacity documents.
  
  
  Re-evaluate Planning Strategy: If the exclusion is intentional (for example, due to resource unavailability), consider re-evaluating your planning strategy to either:
  
  Use different capacity documents that are available.
  Adjust the planning time frame to align with available resources.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for more detailed information on capacity planning and exclusions in SAP TM.
  
  
  Contact SAP Support: If the issue persists and you cannot identify the cause, consider reaching out to SAP support for assistance. They can provide insights based on your specific configuration and usage of the system.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP TM Documentation: Review the official SAP Transportation Management documentation for insights on capacity planning and error handling.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes in SAP TM that can help you analyze capacity documents and planning scenarios (e.g., /SCMTMS/PLN for planning).
  User Forums and Communities: Engage with SAP user communities or forums where similar issues may have been discussed, providing additional context or solutions.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the error and implement a solution to resolve it.
