  The SAP error message EEWA_SUBCONTRACT022 typically relates to the subcontracting process in SAP, particularly when dealing with sales contracts. The message indicates that a sales contract has been automatically selected for a subcontracting process, which may not be the intended behavior or could indicate a configuration issue.
  Cause:
  
  Automatic Selection Logic: The system may have been configured to automatically select a sales contract based on certain criteria, such as availability, pricing, or other parameters.
  Configuration Issues: There may be settings in the configuration of the subcontracting process that are causing the system to select a sales contract automatically.
  Data Inconsistencies: There could be inconsistencies in the master data or transaction data that lead to unexpected behavior in the selection process.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Configuration: Check the configuration settings related to subcontracting and sales contracts in the SAP system. Ensure that the automatic selection criteria are set up correctly.
  Manual Selection: If the automatic selection is not desired, you may need to adjust the settings or manually select the appropriate sales contract during the process.
  Check Master Data: Verify that the master data (materials, vendors, contracts) is correctly maintained and does not have any inconsistencies that could lead to this error.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific details on the EEWA_SUBCONTRACT022 message and its implications.
  Debugging: If the issue persists, consider debugging the process to identify where the automatic selection is occurring and why it is not functioning as expected.
