  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/TOR539 &1 cannot be canceled; doc. type does not fit to default PU type of &2 typically occurs in the context of SAP Transportation Management (TM) when there is an attempt to cancel a transportation order (TOR) that is not compatible with the default planning unit (PU) type associated with the document type.
  Cause:
  
  Document Type Mismatch: The document type of the transportation order you are trying to cancel does not match the expected document type for the default planning unit type. This can happen if the configuration for the planning unit types and document types is not aligned.
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration settings in the SAP system for the transportation management may not be set up correctly, leading to this mismatch.
  Status of the Transportation Order: The transportation order may be in a status that does not allow for cancellation, or it may have already been processed in a way that prevents it from being canceled.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Document Type Configuration: Verify the configuration of the document types and planning unit types in the SAP system. Ensure that the document type of the transportation order is correctly assigned to the appropriate planning unit type.

  Ensure that the document type used for the transportation order is correctly linked to the default planning unit type.
  
  
  
  Review Transportation Order Status: Check the status of the transportation order. If it is already completed or in a status that does not allow cancellation, you may need to take alternative actions, such as reversing or adjusting the order instead of canceling it.
