  Use Unplanned Stages: If your business process allows, create or convert the stages in the transportation order to unplanned stages. This will enable you to perform the split operation.
  
  
  Adjust Configuration: If splitting of planned stages is a requirement for your business process, you may need to review and adjust the configuration settings in SAP TM. This may involve consulting with your SAP TM functional consultant or system administrator.
