  Contract Details: The contract referenced may not be valid for the supplier being used. This could happen if the contract is specific to a different supplier or if the contract has expired.
  Data Entry Errors: Manual entry errors when inputting supplier or contract details can lead to mismatches.
  Changes in Vendor Master Data: If the vendor master data has been updated (e.g., changes in the supplier's name or address) after the contract was created, it may lead to inconsistencies.

  Verify Supplier Information: Check the vendor master data for the supplier in question. Ensure that the details (name, address, etc.) match exactly with what is in the contract.
  Check Contract Validity: Review the contract to ensure it is still valid and that it is indeed associated with the correct supplier. If the contract is expired or not applicable to the supplier, you may need to create a new contract.

  Consult with Procurement Team: If you are unsure about the supplier or contract details, consult with your procurement or purchasing team to clarify the correct information.
  System Configuration: In some cases, the issue may be related to system configuration. If the problem persists, it may be necessary to involve your SAP support team to check for any configuration issues.
