• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMTMS/PLN_VSR_OL455 - Cannot move stop &1; stop is a distribution stop ?

  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/PLN_VSR_OL455 indicates that there is an issue with moving a stop in a transportation order or shipment. Specifically, the error states that the stop you are trying to move is a distribution stop, which typically means that it is part of a multi-stop delivery process where the stop is designated for distribution purposes.
  Cause:
  
  Distribution Stop: The stop you are trying to move is classified as a distribution stop, which has specific rules and constraints in the system. Distribution stops are often linked to specific logistics processes and cannot be moved freely like regular stops.
  Configuration Settings: There may be configuration settings in the SAP Transportation Management (TM) module that restrict the movement of distribution stops.
  Dependencies: The stop may have dependencies on other stops or processes that prevent it from being moved.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Stop Type: Check the type of stop you are trying to move. If it is indeed a distribution stop, you may need to reconsider your logistics planning and whether moving this stop is necessary.
  Adjust Planning: If you need to change the sequence of stops, consider adjusting the overall planning of the transportation order or shipment. You may need to re-evaluate the distribution strategy.
  Consult Configuration: If you believe the movement should be allowed, consult with your SAP TM configuration team to review the settings related to distribution stops. They may need to adjust the configuration to allow for more flexibility.
  Use Alternative Methods: If moving the stop is not possible, consider using alternative methods to achieve your logistics goals, such as creating a new stop or modifying the existing transportation order.
