• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMTMS/TC_RATES075 - Enter a validity start date and end date ?

  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/TC_RATES075 indicates that a validity start date and an end date must be entered when working with transportation rates in the SAP Transportation Management (TM) module. This error typically occurs when you are trying to create or modify transportation rates without specifying the required date range.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by the absence of the required validity dates for the transportation rates.
