    The SAP error message FARR_CONTRACT_MAIN754 indicates that there is an issue with a specific value related to a contract in the SAP system. The message states that a particular value (in this case, "SSP" or "Standard Selling Price") must not be negative, which suggests that there is a data integrity issue in the contract management module.

    Cause:

    1. Negative Value Entry: The most common cause of this error is that a negative value has been entered for the Standard Selling Price (SSP) in the contract. This could be due to a data entry error or incorrect calculations.
    2. Data Migration Issues: If data has been migrated from another system or if there have been recent changes to the configuration, it is possible that negative values were inadvertently introduced.

    Solution:

    1. Check the Contract Data: Review the contract associated with the error message. Look specifically at the SSP value and ensure that it is set to a non-negative value. If it is negative, correct it to a valid positive value.
    2. Data Validation: Implement validation checks in the data entry process to prevent negative values from being entered in the future.
    3. Review Configuration: If the issue persists, review the configuration settings for the contract management module to ensure that there are no settings that allow for negative values.
    4. Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for further guidance on handling contract values and ensuring data integrity.
    5. Testing: After making corrections, test the changes in a development or test environment before applying them to the production system.
