  SAP Error Message:
  W_CB312 - Business Volume Base is deactivated for this Condition Contract Type
  
  
  Cause:
  This warning message appears when you try to process or maintain a condition contract (or related business volume) where the Business Volume Base is not activated for the specific Condition Contract Type you are working with.

  If the Business Volume Base is deactivated or not assigned for the particular contract type, the system cannot calculate or update the business volume, hence the warning.
