• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMTMS/TSPS022 - Carrier &1 has 0 costs for &2; it is considered as most expensive carrier ?

  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/TSPS022 indicates that a specific carrier (denoted as &1) has zero costs associated with a particular transportation service (denoted as &2). As a result, the system considers this carrier to be the most expensive option available. This situation can arise in the context of SAP Transportation Management (TM) when evaluating carriers for transportation planning.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Cost Data: The carrier does not have any cost data defined for the specific transportation service or route. This could be due to incomplete configuration or missing entries in the carrier's pricing conditions.
  Incorrect Configuration: The carrier's pricing conditions may not be set up correctly in the system, leading to a lack of cost information.
  Data Migration Issues: If data was migrated from another system, there may have been issues that resulted in missing cost information for certain carriers.
  Inactive or Incorrect Carrier: The carrier may be inactive or not properly set up in the system, leading to the absence of cost data.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Carrier Configuration: Review the configuration of the carrier in the SAP TM system. Ensure that the carrier has valid pricing conditions set up for the relevant transportation services.
  Define Costs: If costs are missing, you need to define the costs for the carrier in the system. This can typically be done in the carrier's pricing conditions or rate tables.
  Review Transportation Lane: Ensure that the transportation lane associated with the carrier is correctly configured and that the carrier is assigned to the lane with appropriate cost data.
  Activate Carrier: If the carrier is inactive, activate it in the system to ensure it can be considered for transportation planning.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for guidance on setting up carriers and pricing conditions correctly.
  
  Related Information:
