  • What causes this issue?

    When you enter a stage, you cannot switch to single-column entry. This
    may have the following reasons:
    There are stages with stage types 2 (load transfer) or 3 (border) for
    which you cannot use single-column entry.
    There are differences between the destination point of a stage and the
    starting point of the next stage. However, single-column entry requires
    that the destination point of a stage is the same as the starting point
    of the next stage.

    System Response

    You cannot switch to single-column entry.

    How to fix this error?

    Use double-column entry, delete the stages which do not have type 1
    (shipment) or define the starting point as identical to the destination
    point of the previous stage.

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.
