  SAP Error Message: VH108
  Text:
  
  Not possible to add item-related attribute & to header structure
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you try to assign or add an item-related attribute to the header structure in a Vehicle Handling (VH) or Vehicle Management context in SAP. In SAP Vehicle Management or Vehicle Handling modules, certain attributes are defined specifically for items (line items) and cannot be assigned or transferred to the header level because of the structural and data consistency rules.
  In other words, the system prevents mixing item-level attributes with header-level data structures to maintain data integrity and correct processing logic.
  
  When does it occur?
  
  During configuration or customization of vehicle handling data structures.
  When enhancing or modifying vehicle master data or vehicle handling documents.
  When trying to map or assign attributes incorrectly in the customizing or during data upload.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Attribute Assignment:
  
  Verify whether the attribute you are trying to add is defined as an item-related attribute.
  Ensure that item-related attributes are only assigned to item structures, not header structures.
  
  
  
  Correct the Structure:
  
  If you need the attribute at the header level, check if there is a corresponding header attribute or create a new header attribute instead of using an item attribute.
  Adjust your data model or customizing to separate header and item attributes properly.
  
  
  
  Review Customizing:
  
  Go to the relevant customizing transaction (e.g., Vehicle Management customizing) and review the attribute assignments.
  Correct any incorrect assignments of item attributes to header structures.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP Vehicle Management or Vehicle Handling documentation for guidelines on attribute assignment.
  Check SAP Notes or Knowledge Base Articles for any known issues or patches.
