  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/TCC_HL_MSG520 typically indicates that there is a fixed agreement associated with a specific business partner in the Transportation Management (TM) module. This message usually arises when there is an attempt to modify or delete a transportation agreement that is marked as fixed, meaning it cannot be changed or removed due to certain constraints or settings.
  Cause:
  
  Fixed Agreement: The agreement in question is set as fixed, which means it is locked for changes. This could be due to business rules or configurations that prevent modifications to ensure data integrity.
  Business Partner Restrictions: The business partner associated with the agreement may have restrictions or settings that enforce the fixed status of the agreement.

  Create a New Agreement: If the existing agreement cannot be modified, consider creating a new agreement with the desired changes instead of trying to modify the fixed one.
  Documentation and Approval: Ensure that any changes made are documented and approved according to your organization's change management processes.
