  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/TRQ213 Sales organization &1 cannot be changed typically occurs in the context of SAP Transportation Management (TM) when there is an attempt to change the sales organization of a transportation requirement or related document that is not allowed due to certain constraints.
  Cause:
  
  Data Integrity: The sales organization is often tied to specific business processes and data integrity rules. Changing it may violate these rules.
  Document Status: The document (e.g., transportation requirement, shipment) may be in a status that does not allow changes to the sales organization.

  Review Dependencies: Look for any related documents or processes that might be preventing the change. You may need to address these dependencies before making the change.

  Check User Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to make changes to the sales organization. Lack of proper permissions can also lead to such errors.
