• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMTMS/TOR343 - Run in simulation mode; action not performed ?

  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/TOR343 Run in simulation mode; action not performed typically occurs in the context of SAP Transportation Management (TM) when a user attempts to execute a transaction or action that is not allowed in the current mode of operation. This message indicates that the system is currently set to "simulation mode," which means that no actual changes or actions will be performed; instead, the system will only simulate the results of the action.
  Cause:
  
  Simulation Mode: The system is configured to run in simulation mode, which is often used for testing or validation purposes. In this mode, actions are not executed, and the system only provides feedback on what would happen if the action were to be performed.
  User Settings: The user may have inadvertently set the transaction to run in simulation mode.
  Configuration Settings: The system may be configured to default to simulation mode for certain transactions or actions.
  
  Solution:
  
  Switch to Real Mode: If you intend to perform the action, you need to switch from simulation mode to real mode. This can typically be done by changing a setting in the transaction or by selecting an option that indicates you want to execute the action rather than simulate it.
  Check User Settings: Review your user settings or preferences to ensure that you are not set to run in simulation mode by default.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation or help files for the specific transaction you are using to understand how to toggle between simulation and real modes.
  Authorization: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to perform the action in real mode. Sometimes, users may be restricted to simulation mode due to authorization settings.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with the relevant transaction codes in SAP TM that may be related to the action you are trying to perform.
  SAP Notes: Check for any SAP Notes or updates that may address this issue or provide additional context.
  Support: If the issue persists, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with an SAP expert who can provide further assistance.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the error and perform the desired action in SAP TM.
