• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMTMS/TOR068 - Cannot change shipping type to LCL; container is assigned ?

  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/TOR068 Cannot change shipping type to LCL; container is assigned typically occurs in the context of SAP Transportation Management (TM) when there is an attempt to change the shipping type of a transportation order (TO) to LCL (Less than Container Load) while a container has already been assigned to that order.
