You can unfix the business document and then change it.
The fixing only prevents the change of already existing planning results, that is, a fixed subcontractable document is allowed to be subcontracted until a carrier is assigned. If a fixed document is already assigned to a carrier, no more change is allowed in the planning results.
In VSR optimization, a fixed freight order must not be deleted and assigned freight units must not be unassigned. However, freight units can be assigned to freight orders for schedules and to freight bookings considering the capacity.
For manual planning, you can specify in your planning profile whether you are allowed to change a fixed freight order or not (Consider Fixing Status
).
You can specify in Customizing for the business document type (that is, freight order type and freight booking type) that the business document is to be fixed automatically each time you save it. In case of one-step planning, the system saves the business documents only at the very end of the planning process, the fixing takes place at the very end accordingly.
