  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMTMS/PLN_OPT_APP460 - Package unit &1 can't be completely planned ?

    The SAP error message /SCMTMS/PLN_OPT_APP460 indicates that a package unit (PU) cannot be completely planned in the Transportation Management System (TMS). This error typically arises during the planning phase of transportation processes, where the system is unable to allocate resources or find suitable transportation means for the entire package unit.

    Causes:

    1. Insufficient Capacity: The transportation resources (e.g., trucks, containers) may not have enough capacity to accommodate the entire package unit.
    2. Planning Constraints: There may be constraints set in the system that prevent the complete planning of the package unit, such as time windows, delivery dates, or specific route restrictions.
    3. Missing Master Data: Incomplete or incorrect master data for the package unit, such as dimensions, weight, or volume, can lead to planning issues.
    4. Configuration Issues: Incorrect configuration in the TMS settings or planning profiles may lead to this error.
    5. Overlapping Shipments: If there are overlapping shipments or conflicting planning requests, the system may not be able to plan the package unit fully.

    Solutions:

    1. Check Capacity: Verify the available transportation resources and ensure they have sufficient capacity to handle the package unit. Adjust the resource allocation if necessary.
    2. Review Planning Constraints: Examine any constraints that may be affecting the planning process. Adjust the constraints or planning parameters as needed.
    3. Validate Master Data: Ensure that all relevant master data for the package unit is complete and accurate. This includes checking dimensions, weight, and volume.
    4. Adjust Configuration: Review the TMS configuration settings and planning profiles to ensure they are set up correctly for the specific planning scenario.
    5. Analyze Overlapping Shipments: Check for any overlapping shipments or conflicting planning requests that may be causing the issue. Resolve any conflicts to allow for proper planning.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: You may want to use transaction codes like /SCMTMS/PLN for planning or /SCMTMS/OV for overview to analyze the planning situation.
    • Logs and Traces: Check the application logs and traces for more detailed information about the error. This can provide insights into what specifically is causing the planning failure.
    • SAP Notes: Look for relevant SAP Notes or Knowledge Base Articles (KBAs) that may address this specific error message or provide additional troubleshooting steps.
    • Consult Documentation: Review the SAP documentation for Transportation Management for best practices and guidelines on planning package units.

    If the issue persists after trying the above solutions, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP support team or reach out to SAP support for further assistance.

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.
