• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMTMS/TC_RATES091 - &1 rate tables not aged due to references to calculation sheets ?

  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/TC_RATES091 indicates that certain rate tables in the Transportation Management System (TMS) cannot be aged because they have references to calculation sheets. This typically occurs when the system is trying to perform a maintenance operation on rate tables that are still in use or linked to other objects, such as calculation sheets.
  Cause:
  
  Active References: The rate tables you are trying to age are actively referenced by calculation sheets. This means that the system cannot modify or age these tables until the references are removed or the calculation sheets are no longer in use.
  Data Integrity: SAP enforces data integrity by preventing changes to objects that are still being referenced by other objects. This is to ensure that there are no inconsistencies in the data.
