This error typically occurs in the context of SAP Transportation Management (TM) when trying to perform actions on freight units that are linked to an OTR.

  Check OTR Status: Review the status of the OTR to see if it is still active or if it can be completed or canceled. You can do this by navigating to the OTR in the SAP TM system.
  Unassign Freight Unit: If the OTR is no longer needed, you can unassign the freight unit from the OTR. This can typically be done in the freight unit management screen.
