• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMTMS/TSPS055 - &1: carrier &2 is derived and will be considered as fixed ?

  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/TSPS055 typically relates to the Transportation Management System (TMS) within SAP. This message indicates that a carrier has been derived for a transportation request or shipment, and it will be treated as a fixed carrier for that particular transaction. Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information:
  Cause:
  
  Carrier Derivation Logic: The system has a set of rules and logic to determine which carrier should be used for a shipment. If the system derives a carrier based on these rules, it may indicate that the carrier is fixed for the transaction.
  Configuration Settings: The configuration settings in the TMS may dictate that certain carriers are fixed based on specific criteria (e.g., route, shipment type, etc.).
  Master Data Issues: There may be issues with the master data related to carriers, routes, or transportation lanes that lead to the system deriving a carrier.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Carrier Derivation Rules: Check the configuration settings in the TMS to understand how carriers are being derived. You may need to adjust the rules if they are not aligning with your business requirements.
  Check Master Data: Ensure that the master data for carriers, routes, and transportation lanes is complete and accurate. Missing or incorrect data can lead to unexpected behavior in carrier selection.
  Adjust Transportation Planning: If the derived carrier is not suitable, you may need to manually adjust the transportation planning or override the derived carrier if your business process allows for it.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for detailed information on carrier derivation and fixed carrier settings.
  Debugging: If the issue persists, consider debugging the process to see how the carrier is being derived and identify any potential issues in the logic.
