  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/TOR212 indicates that there is an issue with the sold-to party in relation to the transport agreement in the SAP Transportation Management (TM) module. Specifically, the error states that the sold-to party cannot be used as the agreement party because Incoterms have been defined.
  Cause:
  This error typically arises due to one or more of the following reasons:
  
  
  Incorrect Configuration: The sold-to party defined in the transport order does not match the requirements set in the transport agreement. This can happen if the sold-to party is not authorized or is not set up correctly in the system.
  
  
  Incoterms Defined: If Incoterms are defined for the transport order, the system expects that the sold-to party must be compatible with the terms of the transport agreement. If there is a mismatch, the error will occur.
  
  
  Transport Agreement Settings: The transport agreement may have specific settings that restrict the use of certain sold-to parties based on the Incoterms or other criteria.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Sold-to Party: Verify that the sold-to party used in the transport order is correctly set up in the system and is valid for the transport agreement being used.
  
  
  Review Transport Agreement: Examine the transport agreement to ensure that it allows the sold-to party in question. You may need to adjust the agreement settings or create a new agreement that includes the sold-to party.
  
  
  Incoterms Verification: Check the Incoterms defined in the transport order. Ensure that they are compatible with the sold-to party and the transport agreement. If necessary, modify the Incoterms to align with the agreement.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or consult with your SAP support team for specific configurations related to transport agreements and sold-to parties.
  
  
  Testing: After making the necessary adjustments, test the transport order again to ensure that the error is resolved.
