• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMTMS/TOR_OH017 - &1 must not be the first level ?

  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/TOR_OH017 &1 must not be the first level typically occurs in the context of SAP Transportation Management (TM).

  Cause:
  
  Hierarchy Misconfiguration: The object you are trying to process is being treated as a top-level object when it should be a subordinate or child object in the hierarchy.
  Incorrect Assignment: The transportation order or related object may have been incorrectly assigned or created, leading to it being recognized as a first-level object.

  Solution:
  
  Check Object Hierarchy: Review the hierarchy of the transportation orders or related objects. Ensure that the object in question is correctly positioned within the hierarchy.
  Reassign or Recreate Objects: If the object is incorrectly assigned, you may need to reassign it to the correct parent or recreate it with the correct hierarchy.
  Use Transaction Codes: Utilize relevant transaction codes in SAP TM to check and modify the hierarchy. For example, you can use transaction /SCMTMS/TOR to view and manage transportation orders.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for guidance on managing transportation orders and their hierarchies.
  Check Customizations: If your SAP system has custom developments or enhancements, ensure that they are not interfering with the standard behavior of transportation order hierarchies.
