  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/ORG_UNIT054 indicates that an organizational unit in the SAP Transportation Management (TM) system has not been defined with the required role of "Organization." This error typically arises when you are trying to perform an action that requires a specific organizational unit to be set up correctly in the system.
  Cause:
  The error occurs because:
  
  The organizational unit (e.g., a plant, warehouse, or transportation zone) has not been assigned the necessary role (in this case, role 1, which is "Organization").
  The organizational unit may exist in the system, but it lacks the proper configuration or role assignment needed for the specific transaction or process you are attempting to execute.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to ensure that the organizational unit is correctly defined with the required role. Here are the steps to do this:
  
  
  Access the Organizational Unit Configuration:
  
  Go to the SAP Easy Access screen.
  Navigate to the relevant configuration area for Transportation Management. This is usually found under SPRO (SAP Project Reference Object) > SAP Reference IMG > Logistics Execution > Transportation Management > Define Organizational Units.
  
  
  
  Check the Organizational Unit:
  
  Locate the organizational unit that is causing the error (indicated by &1 in the error message).
  Verify if it is defined in the system.
  
  
  
  Assign the Required Role:
  
  If the organizational unit exists but does not have the role of "Organization," you will need to edit its settings.
  Assign the role 1 (Organization) to the organizational unit. This may involve selecting the unit and modifying its attributes to include the necessary role.
  
  
  
  Save Changes:
  
  After making the necessary changes, save your configuration.
  
  
  
  Test the Transaction:
