This error typically arises in the context of the Electronic Waybill (EWB) process in India, where businesses are required to generate e-way bills for the movement of goods.
  Cause:
  The error occurs because the system is trying to execute a contingency mode operation on an e-document that has already been marked as completed. Contingency mode is used when there are issues with the e-way bill generation, and it allows users to generate a temporary e-way bill.

  Solution:
  To resolve this error, consider the following steps:
  
  
  Check Document Status: Verify the status of the e-document in question. If it is marked as completed, you cannot perform contingency operations on it.
  
  
  Use Correct Document: If you need to generate a new e-way bill in contingency mode, ensure that you are working with an e-document that is not yet completed.
  
  
  Recreate E-Way Bill: If necessary, you may need to cancel the completed e-way bill (if applicable) and create a new one to use contingency mode.
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes or updates that may address this specific error. SAP frequently releases updates that may provide fixes or additional guidance.
