  W_CB350 Condition Contract &1 can be extended: New Validity &2 to &3
  
  Message Class:
  CB (Condition Contracts)
  
  Message Type:
  Warning (W)
  
  Meaning / Cause:
  This warning message appears when you attempt to create or change a condition contract, and the system detects that the validity period of the contract can be extended beyond the current end date. The system is informing you that the contract with number &1 can be extended to a new validity period from &2 (new start date) to &3 (new end date).
  In other words, the system has found that the contract's validity period can be prolonged, and it is prompting you to consider extending it instead of creating a new contract or leaving the contract with a shorter validity.
  
  When does this occur?
  
  When you try to create a new condition contract or change an existing one.
  The system checks if the contract's validity period can be extended.
  If extension is possible, this warning is issued to inform the user.
  
  
  Solution / Recommended Action:
  
  Review the suggested new validity period (&2 to &3).
  If it makes business sense, extend the contract's validity period instead of creating a new contract.
  To extend the contract validity, you can update the contract's end date to the new suggested end date.
  If you do not want to extend the contract, you can ignore this warning and proceed as per your business process.
  
  
  Additional Information:
  
  Extending the validity period of a condition contract can help maintain continuity and avoid creating multiple contracts for the same business partner or condition.
  This message is a warning, not an error, so it does not block the transaction.
  The message helps in maintaining cleaner contract data and better contract management.
  Check the contract details in transaction VK31 (Maintain Condition Contracts) or VK32 (Change Condition Contract).
  If you want to suppress this warning, you may need to check your system configuration or user exit/custom code, but generally, it is recommended to heed the warning.
