  Cause:
  
  FDI Already Set: The primary cause of this error is that the Financial Document Interface (FDI) has already been activated or set for the specified contract item.

  Solution:
  
  Check Existing FDI Settings: Review the contract item specified in the error message (with identifiers &1, &2, and CI &3) to confirm whether the FDI has indeed been set. You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction or report that displays FDI settings for contract items.
  Avoid Duplicate Processing: If you are trying to set the FDI again, ensure that you are not attempting to duplicate an action that has already been completed. If the FDI is already set, you may need to proceed with other actions or adjustments without trying to set it again.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources related to the Financial Document Interface to understand the correct procedures for handling FDI settings.
  Contact Support: If you believe that this error is occurring inappropriately (for example, if you have not set the FDI previously), consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with an SAP expert to investigate further.
