  Cause:
  The error occurs because the system has detected that there are active transportation requirements (such as shipments, deliveries, or other logistics-related tasks) linked to the location you are attempting to modify.

  Change Location: Once there are no active requirements linked to the location, you should be able to change the location without encountering the error.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about the requirements or how to proceed, consult the SAP documentation or your organization's SAP support team for guidance.
  
  
  Check for Dependencies: Ensure that there are no other dependencies or configurations that might be preventing the change. Sometimes, other settings or configurations in the TMS can affect the ability to modify locations.
