This error typically occurs in the context of contract management or project management within SAP, particularly in modules related to project systems (PS) or contract management.
  Cause:
  
  No Active Contracts: The application requires at least one active contract to function. If there are no contracts that are currently active, the system will throw this error.

  Solution:
  
  Check Active Contracts: Verify if there are any active contracts in the system. You can do this by navigating to the contract management area in SAP and checking the status of contracts.
  Activate Contracts: If there are contracts that are not active, you may need to activate them. This typically involves going through the contract management process to ensure they are set to active status.
  Review Reversed Contracts: If contracts have been reversed, check if there are any other contracts that can be activated or if the reversal was done in error.
  User Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary permissions to view and access contracts. If not, contact your SAP security administrator to adjust the authorizations.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific steps related to contract management in your version of SAP.
