  Cause:

The placeholders &1 and &2 represent the contract number and the item number, respectively.
  Possible Reasons:
  
  Insufficient Quantity: The contract has been partially fulfilled, and the remaining quantity is less than what is being requested.

  Ensure that the item number referenced in the error message corresponds to the correct item in the contract.
  
  
  
  Review Contract Status:
  
  Ensure that the contract is active and not in a status that would prevent further processing (e.g., closed).
  
  
  
  Adjust Quantity:
  
  If the requested quantity exceeds the available quantity, adjust the quantity in your transaction to match the available open quantity.
  
  
  
  Contract Validity:
  
  Check the validity dates of the contract to ensure it is still active for the date of the transaction.
  
  
  
  Consult with Stakeholders:
  
  If necessary, consult with the contract owner or relevant stakeholders to clarify any discrepancies or to request adjustments to the contract.
