  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/TCCS258 typically occurs in the context of SAP Transportation Management (TM) when there is an issue with the configuration of transportation charges or conditions. This specific error indicates that a particular charge item (identified by &1) is being referenced as a single reference item by another item (identified by &2), but it is already included as a sum item in the same context.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Charge Configuration: The charge item is configured in such a way that it is being referenced multiple times, which can lead to confusion in the calculation of transportation costs.
  Incorrect Item Grouping: The item might be incorrectly grouped or categorized, leading to it being treated as both a single reference and a sum item.

  Solution:
  
  Review Charge Item Configuration: Check the configuration of the charge items in the SAP TM system. Ensure that each charge item is defined correctly and that there are no duplicate references.
  Adjust Item Grouping: If the charge item is meant to be a sum item, ensure that it is not also being treated as a single reference item. Adjust the grouping or categorization as necessary.
  Check for Data Integrity: Validate the data integrity of the charge items. Look for any inconsistencies or errors in the setup that could lead to this issue.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for guidance on configuring transportation charges and resolving related errors.
  Testing: After making adjustments, test the configuration to ensure that the error no longer occurs and that the transportation charges are calculated correctly.
