How To Fix VW291 - Single-column view not possible (see long text).

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: VW - Shipment Processing Output

• Message number: 291

• Message text: Single-column view not possible (see long text).

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.
