• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMTMS/PLN_VSR_OL449 - Cannot remove stop from document &1; stop is used by cargo items ?

  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/PLN_VSR_OL449 indicates that there is an attempt to remove a stop from a transportation document, but the stop is currently being used by cargo items. This typically occurs in the context of SAP Transportation Management (TM) when managing transportation planning and execution.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by the following reasons:
  
  Cargo Items Dependency: The stop you are trying to remove is associated with one or more cargo items. In SAP TM, stops are linked to cargo items to define the pick-up and drop-off locations for the goods being transported.
  Data Integrity: SAP enforces data integrity rules to ensure that the transportation planning process remains consistent. Removing a stop that is still in use by cargo items would lead to inconsistencies in the transportation document.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Cargo Items: Review the cargo items associated with the stop you are trying to remove. You can do this by navigating to the transportation document and checking the details of the cargo items linked to the stop.
  
  
  Remove Dependency: If you need to remove the stop, you must first either:
  
  Reassign the cargo items to a different stop.
  Delete the cargo items that are linked to the stop (if they are no longer needed).
  
  
  
  Modify Transportation Document: After ensuring that no cargo items are linked to the stop, you can attempt to remove the stop again.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about the process, refer to the SAP documentation or help resources related to Transportation Management for detailed guidance on managing stops and cargo items.
  
  
  Check for Custom Logic: If your organization has implemented custom logic or enhancements in SAP TM, ensure that these do not interfere with the standard behavior of removing stops.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You may use transaction codes like /SCMTMS/PLN to access the planning area or /SCMTMS/DO for managing transportation documents.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address specific issues or bugs related to this error message.
  User Roles and Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to modify transportation documents and cargo items.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with an SAP expert for further assistance.
