• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMTMS/TRQ661 - &1: Ordered and actual attributes are equal; no attributes to be copied ?

  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/TRQ661 &1: Ordered and actual attributes are equal; no attributes to be copied typically occurs in the context of SAP Transportation Management (TM) when there is an attempt to copy attributes from an ordered item to an actual item, but the system finds that the attributes are already equal. This means that there are no changes to be made, and thus, the copying process cannot proceed.
  Cause:
  
  Identical Attributes: The ordered and actual attributes (such as quantity, weight, volume, etc.) are the same, leading the system to determine that there is nothing to copy.
  Configuration Issues: There may be a configuration issue in the way the attributes are set up in the system.
  Data Integrity: The data being processed may not have been updated correctly, leading to mismatches or identical values.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Attributes: Review the ordered and actual attributes to confirm that they are indeed identical. If they are, no action is needed, as the system is functioning as intended.
  Adjust Data: If you expect the attributes to differ, investigate the data entry or configuration that led to this situation. Ensure that the ordered attributes are correctly defined and that any necessary updates are made.
  Review Configuration: Check the configuration settings in SAP TM to ensure that the copying of attributes is set up correctly. This may involve looking at the relevant customizing settings in the SAP system.
  Debugging: If the issue persists and you believe it should not be occurring, consider debugging the process to identify where the logic is failing or why the attributes are being treated as equal.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to this error message for any specific guidance or updates that may address the issue.
