• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMTMS/TCCS158 - Item &1: Rte table/rte table tmpl. & item calc. rule should not co-exist ?

  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/TCCS158 indicates a conflict in the configuration of transportation management settings, specifically related to route tables and calculation rules for items. This error typically arises when both a route table and a route table template are defined for the same item, which is not allowed in the system.
  Cause:
  The error occurs due to the following reasons:
  
  Configuration Conflict: The system has detected that both a route table and a route table template are assigned to the same item. This is a configuration issue where the system does not allow both to coexist for the same item.
  Incorrect Assignment: The item may have been incorrectly assigned to both a route table and a route table template, leading to ambiguity in how the system should process the transportation planning.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Item Configuration:

  If both are assigned, decide which one should be used based on your business requirements.
  
  
  
  Remove Conflicting Assignment:
  
  If you determine that the route table should be used, remove the assignment of the route table template for that item.
  Conversely, if the route table template is preferred, remove the assignment of the route table.
  
  
  
  Test the Configuration:
  
  After making the necessary changes, test the configuration to ensure that the error no longer occurs and that the transportation planning works as expected.
