  Cause:
  This error indicates that the system has detected that the quantity that has been confirmed for a transportation request exceeds the quantity that was originally ordered. This can happen due to several reasons, including:
  
  Data Entry Errors: Incorrect data entry during the creation of the transportation request or order.
  Changes in Order Quantity: The order quantity may have been changed after the transportation request was created, leading to a mismatch.
  Multiple Confirmations: If multiple confirmations are made for the same transportation request, it may lead to an overall confirmed quantity that exceeds the ordered quantity.
  System Configuration Issues: There may be issues with the configuration of the transportation management system that allow for such discrepancies.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check the Transportation Request: Review the transportation request and the associated order to verify the quantities. Ensure that the confirmed quantity does not exceed the ordered quantity.

  Reducing the confirmed quantity in the transportation request.
  Deleting any excess confirmations if applicable.
  
  
  
  Review Order Changes: If the order quantity has been changed, ensure that the transportation request is updated accordingly. You may need to create a new transportation request if the original one cannot be adjusted.
  
  
  Consult with Stakeholders: If there are discrepancies that cannot be resolved through adjustments, consult with relevant stakeholders (e.g., logistics, sales, or supply chain teams) to understand the root cause and agree on the necessary adjustments.
  
  
  Check System Configuration: If this error occurs frequently, it may be worth reviewing the system configuration and settings related to transportation management to ensure they align with business processes.
