  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/TC_RATES282 typically occurs in the context of SAP Transportation Management (TM) when there is an issue related to capacity dimensions in the transportation planning process. This error indicates that the system requires a specific capacity dimension to be defined, but it has not been provided or is ambiguous.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Capacity Dimension: The error usually arises when a transportation resource (like a vehicle or a shipping container) is expected to have a defined capacity dimension (e.g., weight, volume, or number of pallets), but none has been specified.
  Multiple Capacity Dimensions: If multiple capacity dimensions are defined for a resource, the system may not know which one to use, leading to confusion and the error message.
  Configuration Issues: There may be issues in the configuration of the transportation management system, particularly in how capacity dimensions are set up for resources.
  
  Solution:
  
  Specify a Capacity Dimension: Ensure that you specify exactly one capacity dimension when defining the transportation resource. This could be weight, volume, or another relevant dimension.
  Check Resource Configuration: Review the configuration of the transportation resources in the system. Make sure that each resource has a clearly defined and singular capacity dimension.
  Adjust Planning Parameters: If you are using planning parameters or profiles, ensure that they are set up correctly to reflect the required capacity dimensions.
  Review Transportation Lane Settings: Check the settings for transportation lanes to ensure that they are correctly configured to use the specified capacity dimensions.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on capacity dimensions in your version of SAP TM.
