  Cause:
  This error typically arises when:
  
  The scale template defined for a specific scale in the ULD rate table is not set to "To Scale." In SAP, "To Scale" means that the scale is expected to have a defined upper limit or threshold that the rates apply to.

  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check the Scale Template Configuration:
  
  Navigate to the ULD rate table configuration in SAP.

  If the scale template is not set to "To Scale," you will need to modify it. This can usually be done in the configuration settings where you define the scale templates.
  Set the scale template to "To Scale" and save the changes.
  
  
  
  Validate the Rate Table:
  
  After making the necessary changes, validate the ULD rate table to ensure that all configurations are correct and that there are no other errors present.
  
  
  
  Test the Configuration:
  
  Once the changes are made, perform a test to ensure that the error no longer appears and that the ULD rate calculations are functioning as expected.
