• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMTMS/TOR272 - Empty provisioning TU &1 is already planned; triangulation not possible ?

  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/TOR272 Empty provisioning TU &1 is already planned; triangulation not possible typically occurs in the context of SAP Transportation Management (TM) when there is an issue with the planning of transportation units (TUs) in a triangulation scenario. Triangulation refers to a logistics process where a transportation unit is used to transport goods from one location to another, and then to a third location, often involving multiple legs of transportation.
  
  Cause:
  
  Empty Provisioning TU: The error indicates that there is an empty provisioning transportation unit (TU) that has already been planned. This means that the system has identified a TU that is not carrying any goods but is still being considered for planning.
  Duplicate Planning: The TU in question may have been planned multiple times, leading to conflicts in the planning process.
  Triangulation Constraints: The system may not be able to perform triangulation due to the current state of the TUs
