• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMTMS/TOR545 - Cannot remove stops from &1 &2; a default route is assigned ?

  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/TOR545 indicates that you are trying to remove stops from a transportation order (TO) that has a default route assigned. This error typically occurs in the SAP Transportation Management (TM) module when there are constraints related to the routing of the transportation order.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by the following reasons:
  
  Default Route Assignment: The transportation order has a default route assigned, which means that the system expects the stops to be part of that route. Removing stops would violate the integrity of the route.
  Route Determination Rules: The route determination rules in the system may not allow for the modification of stops if a default route is in place.
  System Configuration: The configuration settings in SAP TM may restrict changes to transportation orders that have default routes assigned.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can consider the following steps:
  
  
  Check the Default Route: Review the transportation order to understand the default route assigned. You may need to analyze the route and its stops to determine if the changes you want to make are valid.
  
  
  Remove Default Route: If you need to remove stops, you may first need to remove the default route from the transportation order. This can typically be done in the transportation order details. However, ensure that this does not violate any business rules or processes.
  
  
  Modify the Transportation Order: After removing the default route, you can then proceed to modify the stops as needed. Once the modifications are complete, you can reassign a new route if necessary.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation or help files related to transportation orders and route management for specific instructions on how to handle routes and stops.
  
  
  Check User Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to make changes to transportation orders and routes.
