Message text: Transportation processing activities after saving (printing?) incorrect
In Customizing, you can store for each shipment type the activities that
are to be carried out during transportation processing. Some of these
activities are carried out before saving the shipment (e.g. posting
goods issue or billing) and some after saving (e.g. printing).
In this case, the activities have been carried out incorrectly after
saving (probably the printing activity).
The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
