The message typically states that the contract is in a status that allows only for business operations to be deleted, rather than allowing for other modifications or deletions.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by the contract being in a status that restricts certain actions. This could be due to:
  
  The contract being in a status that is not allowed for deletion (e.g., it may be in a status like "Active," "Completed," or "Closed").
  The contract may have associated transactions or dependencies that prevent it from being deleted.
  Business rules or configurations in the SAP system that enforce certain status restrictions.

  Consult Documentation: Review the SAP documentation or configuration settings related to contract management to understand the allowed statuses and operations.
  
  
  Contact Support: If you are unable to change the status or if you are unsure about the implications of doing so, it may be best to consult with your SAP support team or a functional consultant who specializes in contract management.
  
  
  Audit Dependencies: Ensure that there are no dependencies or linked transactions that would prevent the deletion of the contract. This may involve checking for open items or related documents.
