• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMTMS/TOR292 - As a multi-item, &2 cannot be used as default for document type &1 ?

  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/TOR292 indicates that there is an issue with the configuration of document types in the SAP Transportation Management (TM) system. Specifically, it suggests that a multi-item document cannot be used as a default for a certain document type.
  Cause:
  
  
  Document Type Configuration: The error typically arises when the system is trying to assign a multi-item document type as a default for a single-item document type. In SAP TM, certain document types are designed to handle either single items or multiple items, and they cannot be interchanged.
  
  
  Inconsistent Settings: There may be inconsistencies in the configuration settings for the document types in the system. For example, if the system expects a single-item document type but is provided with a multi-item document type, this error will occur.
  
  
  Customizations or Enhancements: If there have been customizations or enhancements made to the document type settings, they may not align with the standard configurations, leading to this error.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Document Type Settings: Review the configuration of the document types involved. Ensure that the document type you are trying to set as default is compatible with the expected item type (single vs. multi).
  
  
  Adjust Default Settings: If you need to use a multi-item document type, ensure that it is set up correctly in the system and that it is not being assigned as a default for a single-item document type.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation for Transportation Management to understand the specific requirements and limitations of document types.
  
  
  Testing: After making changes, perform tests to ensure that the document types are functioning as expected without triggering the error.
  
  
  Seek Help from SAP Support: If the issue persists after checking the configurations, consider reaching out to SAP support for further assistance. They can provide insights based on the specific version and configuration of your SAP system.
