• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMTMS/TCCS_TMPL072 - Line number &1: Sum line number 10 cannot be used in Ref.-from line ?

  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/TCCS_TMPL072 typically occurs in the context of SAP Transportation Management (TM) when there is an issue with the configuration of transportation charges or conditions in a transport charge calculation schema. The specific error message indicates that there is a problem with the reference line in the charge calculation template.
  Cause:
  The error message "Line number &1: Sum line number 10 cannot be used in Ref.-from line" suggests that:
  
  Incorrect Configuration: The charge calculation template is incorrectly configured. Specifically, it indicates that a sum line (in this case, line number 10) is being referenced in a way that is not allowed.
  Reference Line Misconfiguration: The reference line is expected to point to a specific line type (like a condition line) but is incorrectly pointing to a sum line, which cannot be used as a reference.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Charge Calculation Template:
  
  Go to the charge calculation template configuration in SAP TM.
  Review the lines defined in the template, especially line number 10 and any lines that reference it.
  Ensure that sum lines are not being used as reference lines. Sum lines are typically used for aggregating values and should not be referenced in the same way as condition lines.
  
  
  
  Modify the Template:
  
  If line number 10 is a sum line, consider changing the reference to a valid condition line instead.
  If necessary, create a new condition line that can be referenced appropriately.
  
  
  
  Test Changes:
  
  After making the necessary adjustments, test the charge calculation to ensure that the error no longer occurs.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or help resources related to charge calculation templates in SAP TM for additional guidance on proper configuration.
  
  
  
  Seek Support:
  
  If the issue persists, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with an SAP expert who specializes in Transportation Management.
  
  
  
  Related Information:

  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with transaction codes related to charge calculation templates, such as /SCMTMS/TCCS for configuration.
  Training and Documentation: Consider reviewing training materials or documentation on SAP TM charge calculation to better understand how to configure templates correctly.
