  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/PLN_VSR_OL205 indicates that a specific resource (in this case, a vehicle resource) is already coupled to another planning object or resource. This typically occurs in the context of SAP Transportation Management (TM) when trying to assign a vehicle to a transportation requirement or order that is already assigned to another vehicle.
  Cause:

  Release the Resource: If the vehicle is indeed assigned to another order and you want to reassign it, you will need to release it from the current assignment first. This can usually be done in the transportation management cockpit or through the relevant transaction codes.
  Use a Different Vehicle: If the vehicle is actively engaged in another task and cannot be released, consider using a different vehicle resource for the new assignment.
  Review Planning Logic: Ensure that your planning logic does not allow for double assignments. This may involve reviewing your planning strategies and configurations in SAP TM.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on managing vehicle resources and assignments.
