• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMTMS/TOR823 - Veh. resource &1 cannot be loaded directly but cargo items are assigned ?

  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/TOR823 indicates that a vehicle resource (in this case, represented by &1) cannot be loaded directly because there are cargo items that are already assigned to it. This typically occurs in the context of transportation management within SAP, where the system is trying to load cargo onto a vehicle that has already been assigned cargo items.
  Cause:
  
  Cargo Assignment: The vehicle resource has cargo items assigned to it, which means it cannot accept additional cargo directly without first unloading or reassigning the existing cargo.
  Loading Constraints: There may be constraints or rules defined in the system that prevent the direct loading of cargo onto a vehicle that already has assigned items.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the SAP system that dictate how cargo and vehicle resources interact.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Cargo Assignments: Review the cargo items that are currently assigned to the vehicle. You may need to unload or reassign these items before attempting to load new cargo.
  Modify Load Plan: If the vehicle is part of a load plan, consider modifying the load plan to accommodate the new cargo without violating existing assignments.
  Use Unloading Functionality: If applicable, use the unloading functionality to remove the existing cargo from the vehicle before attempting to load new items.
  Review Configuration: Check the configuration settings in the SAP system related to transportation management and vehicle loading to ensure they align with your business processes.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on handling cargo assignments and vehicle loading.
