  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/PLN_VSR_OL309 indicates that a freight order is already assigned to an active vehicle, which prevents further actions such as reassigning the freight order to another vehicle or modifying its status.
  Cause:
  
  Active Assignment: The freight order you are trying to work with is currently assigned to a vehicle that is in an active state (e.g., the vehicle is already on a route or in transit).
  System Lock: The system may have a lock on the freight order due to ongoing processes or transactions that involve the vehicle.

  Solution:
  
  Check Vehicle Assignment: Verify which vehicle the freight order is currently assigned to. You can do this by checking the freight order details in the SAP Transportation Management (TM) module.
  Release the Vehicle: If the vehicle is no longer needed for that freight order, you may need to release it. This can typically be done through the vehicle assignment screen or by changing the status of the vehicle.
  Wait for Completion: If the vehicle is actively in use (e.g., delivering goods), you may need to wait until the delivery is completed before making any changes to the freight order.
  Consult Logs: Check the system logs or transaction history for any additional information that might indicate why the freight order is locked or assigned.
  Contact Support: If you are unable to resolve the issue, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting the SAP Help Portal for further assistance.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes in SAP TM, such as /SCMTMS/FO for freight orders and /SCMTMS/VEHICLE for vehicle management.
