Message type: E = Error
Message class: V6 - Interface to External Transportation Systems
Message number: 550
Message text: Reference to one location is not identified uniquely
The reference of the transportation connection point to a different
location (customer, shipping point, etc.) has not been defined
uniquely. This happens, for example, when you specify both a customer
number and a shipping point number or both a reference and an address
for a transportation connection point. The system cannot process the
resulting ambiguity.
You cannot continue processing with this data.
Correct the reference data such that there is a unique reference:
Customer and unloading point
or vendor
or shipping point and loading point
or plant and storage location
or address
In addition to the shipping point or plant, you can specify a
combination of storage location number and gate.
If an address has been defined together with the reference, delete
either the reference or the address.
