  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/TOR347 &1 cannot be copied to document type with different transportation mode typically occurs in the SAP Transportation Management System (TMS) when there is an attempt to copy a transportation order (TOR) or related document to another document type that has a different transportation mode. This can happen during various processes, such as creating a new transportation order based on an existing one.
  Cause:

  Check Transportation Modes: Verify the transportation modes of both the source and target documents. Ensure that you are trying to copy between documents that share the same transportation mode.

  Adjust Configuration (if applicable): If you have the necessary permissions and it is appropriate for your business process, you may consider adjusting the configuration settings in SAP to allow copying between different transportation modes. However, this should be done with caution and typically requires consultation with your SAP Basis or TMS configuration team.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Review the SAP documentation or help files related to transportation management for any specific guidelines or best practices regarding document copying and transportation modes.
