• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMTMS/PLN_OPT_APP632 - No valid route since resulting FO would exceed maximum distance/duration ?

  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/PLN_OPT_APP632 indicates that there is no valid route available for a freight order (FO) because the resulting route would exceed the maximum distance or duration constraints set in the system. This error typically arises in the context of transportation planning within the SAP Transportation Management (TM) module.
  Cause:
  
  Distance/Duration Constraints: The system has defined maximum limits for distance and/or duration for routes. If the calculated route exceeds these limits, the error is triggered.
  Route Configuration: The routes configured in the system may not be suitable for the specific shipment, leading to the inability to find a valid route.
  Master Data Issues: Inaccurate or incomplete master data (e.g., location data, transportation lanes) can lead to incorrect route calculations.
  Planning Parameters: The planning parameters set in the system may be too restrictive, preventing the system from finding a feasible route.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Review Maximum Distance/Duration Settings:
  
  Check the settings for maximum distance and duration in the transportation management configuration. Adjust these parameters if necessary to allow for longer routes.
  
  
  
  Check Route Configuration:
  
  Review the transportation lanes and routes defined in the system. Ensure that they are correctly configured and that there are valid routes available for the origin and destination of the freight order.
  
  
  
  Validate Master Data:
  
  Ensure that all relevant master data (e.g., locations, transportation lanes, and vehicle data) is accurate and complete. Correct any discrepancies that may affect route planning.
  
  
  
  Adjust Planning Parameters:
  
  If the planning parameters are too restrictive, consider adjusting them to allow for more flexibility in route selection.
  
  
  
  Use Alternative Routes:
  
  If possible, consider using alternative routes that may not have been initially selected by the system. This may involve manual intervention or adjustments in the planning process.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on configuring transportation management settings related to distance and duration constraints.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional guidance on configuration settings.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes in SAP TM, such as /SCMTMS/PLN for planning and /SCMTMS/FO for freight orders, to facilitate troubleshooting.
  User Forums: Engage with SAP user communities or forums for insights from other users who may have encountered similar issues.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the root cause of the error and implement a solution to resolve it.
