  Contract Limit Exceeded: The most common cause is that the quantity or value of the item being processed exceeds the limits defined in the associated contract. This could be due to:
  
  Exceeding the total quantity allowed for the contract.
  Exceeding the total value of the contract.
  The item may not be covered under the contract terms.
  
  
  
  Contract Configuration: The contract may not be configured correctly, or the limits may not have been updated to reflect current needs.

  Consult with Procurement: If you are unsure about the contract limits or how to adjust them, consult with your procurement or contract management team for guidance.
