  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/PLN_VSR_OL068 indicates that a specific document (such as a transportation order or shipment) has been excluded from processing because it contains at least one stop with an undefined location. This typically occurs in the context of SAP Transportation Management (TM) when the system is unable to determine the geographical location of a stop, which is essential for planning and executing transportation activities.
  Cause:
  
  
  Undefined Location: One or more stops in the transportation document do not have a valid or defined location. This could be due to:
  
  Missing or incorrect master data for the location (e.g., a plant, customer, or vendor).
  The location may not be set up in the system or may have been deleted.
  The location might not be assigned to the relevant transportation lane or route.
  
  
  
  Data Inconsistencies: There may be inconsistencies in the data entered for the stops, such as incorrect addresses or missing location details.
  
  
  Configuration Issues: The system configuration may not be set up to recognize certain locations, especially if they are newly added or modified.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Location Master Data:
  
  Verify that all locations (stops) in the transportation document are correctly defined in the system.
  Ensure that the relevant master data (e.g., customer, vendor, plant) is complete and accurate.
  
  
  
  Update Transportation Document:
  
  Go to the transportation document and check the details of each stop.
  If any stop has an undefined location, update it with the correct location information.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration:
  
  Check the configuration settings in SAP TM to ensure that all necessary locations are included and properly set up.
  Ensure that the transportation lanes and routes are correctly defined and include all relevant locations.
  
  
  
  Data Consistency Checks:
  
  Run data consistency checks to identify any discrepancies in the master data or transportation documents.
  Correct any inconsistencies found during the checks.
