• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMTMS/TCCS_TMPL083 - Line no. &1: Rate table template and item calc. rule should not co-exist ?

  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/TCCS_TMPL083 indicates a conflict in the configuration of a rate table template in the Transportation Management System (TMS). Specifically, it states that a rate table template and an item calculation rule should not co-exist on the same level of configuration. This error typically arises when both a rate table template and an item calculation rule are defined for the same transportation charge calculation.
  Cause:
  
  Configuration Conflict: The error occurs when both a rate table template and an item calculation rule are assigned to the same transportation charge calculation. This is not allowed because the system cannot determine which method to use for calculating transportation charges.
  Incorrect Setup: It may also arise from incorrect or incomplete setup in the TMS configuration, where the user inadvertently assigns both elements to the same charge calculation.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to ensure that either a rate table template or an item calculation rule is defined, but not both, for the same transportation charge calculation. Here are the steps to troubleshoot and fix the issue:
  
  
  Review Configuration:
  
  Go to the TMS configuration settings where the rate table templates and item calculation rules are defined.
  Identify the transportation charge calculation that is causing the error.
  
  
  
  Remove Conflict:
  
  Decide whether you want to use a rate table template or an item calculation rule for the specific charge calculation.
  If you choose to use a rate table template, remove any associated item calculation rules.
  Conversely, if you prefer to use an item calculation rule, ensure that no rate table template is assigned.
  
  
  
  Test Changes:
  
  After making the necessary adjustments, test the configuration to ensure that the error no longer occurs and that the transportation charges are calculated correctly.
  
  
  
  Documentation:
  
  Document the changes made to the configuration for future reference and to help prevent similar issues.
