  Meaning / Cause:
  This warning message occurs in SAP Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable (FI-CA) module, specifically during condition contract processing. It indicates that a particular document item (document number &1, item number &2) is not relevant or cannot be assigned to the specified condition contract (&3).
  In other words:
  
  The system is trying to link or assign a document item to a condition contract, but the item does not meet the criteria or is not valid for that contract.
  Common causes include:  
  
  The document item does not belong to the contract account or contract referenced by the condition contract.  
  The document item is already settled or cleared and cannot be assigned again.  
  The document item type or status is incompatible with the condition contract.  
  The condition contract is not active or valid for the document item.  
  The document item is from a different business area or company code than the condition contract.
  
  
  Where does this occur?

  Solution / How to fix:
  
  
  Check Document and Item:  
  
  Verify that the document number (&1) and item (&2) exist and are open (not cleared or fully settled).

  Validate Condition Contract:  
  
  Ensure the condition contract (&3) is active and valid for the document item.

  Run reports or use transaction codes like FPL9 (Display Document Items) or FPAYH (Payment Document) to analyze document items and their assignments.

  Correct Data or Process:
