• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMTMS/TS_PROF006 - You are only allowed to define decreasing capacities once for your system ?

  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/TS_PROF006 indicates that there is an issue with the configuration of transportation capacities in the SAP Transportation Management (TM) module. Specifically, it means that you are trying to define decreasing capacities for a transportation resource more than once, which is not allowed in the system.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when:
  
  You attempt to define multiple decreasing capacities for the same transportation resource (e.g., a vehicle or a shipping point).
  The system already has a defined decreasing capacity for that resource, and you are trying to create another one.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Existing Capacities:
  
  Go to the configuration settings for transportation resources in SAP TM.
  Look for the existing capacity definitions for the resource in question.
  Ensure that there is only one decreasing capacity defined for that resource.
  
  
  
  Modify or Delete Existing Capacity:
  
  If you find that there is already a decreasing capacity defined, you can either modify it to meet your needs or delete it if it is no longer required.
  Make sure to adjust the capacity settings to ensure they align with your transportation planning requirements.
  
  
  
  Define Increasing Capacities:
  
  If you need to define multiple capacities, consider using increasing capacities instead of decreasing ones, as the system allows for multiple increasing capacities.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review the SAP documentation or help files related to transportation capacity management for further guidance on how to properly configure capacities.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, test the configuration to ensure that the error no longer appears and that the transportation planning functions as expected.
