What causes this issue?

Contract change can either be:
Contract modification
Change of estimates.
Depending on the Customizing (
<DS:SIMG.FARR_VC_ACCT_PR>Configure Accounting Principle-specific
Settings</>) for a company code and accounting principle, one or the
other is applied when the scope of a contract is changed.
The change mode for a POB is determined by the field CHANGE_MODE (only
in the buffer, not written to database) and can be one of the following:
'P' or 'V' prospective change
'R' retrospective change
' ' (empty) no change
In any case, the POB must have a corresponding record inserted into the
database table FARR_D_CHANGE_TYPE for the fiscal year and period in
which the contract change has taken place. If this entry is missing then
an error is raised.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
