How To Fix WRF_PRC_CON011 - You cannot change the target value of contract &1 from &2 to &3

WRF_PRC_CON011 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: WRF_PRC_CON - Messages for maintaining the internal contract apportionment

• Message number: 011

• Message text: You cannot change the target value of contract &1 from &2 to &3

What causes this issue?

If you make this change, the system will change the contract from a
value contract to a quantity contract.
The current contract is OTB-compulsory, which means that an internal
contract apportionment exists.
The internal contract apportionment for value contracts only contains
one value per period. This is because, for value contracts, all relevant
items are assigned to the same OTB buckets per period.
In the internal contract apportionment for quantity contracts, on the
other hand, different OTB buckets can be assigned to the contract per
period.
If a contract is changed from a value to a quantity contract, a data
inconsistency results between the contract type and the corresponding
internal apportionment. This will cause problems in subsequent
processing.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

  SAP Error Message:
  WRF_PRC_CON011
  Text: You cannot change the target value of contract &1 from &2 to &3.
  
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you attempt to change the target value (e.g., target quantity or target amount) of a contract in SAP to a new value that is not allowed based on the system's validation rules. Typically, this happens because:
  
  The contract already has actual consumption or billing documents posted against it.
  The system restricts changes to the target value once certain transactions (like goods receipts, invoices, or consumption postings) have been recorded.
  The change would violate the integrity of the contract's financial or quantity commitments.
  
  In other words, SAP prevents you from changing the target value because it could lead to inconsistencies between the contract and the actual postings.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, consider the following steps:
  
  
  Check for Existing Postings:
  
  Verify if there are any goods receipts, invoices, or consumption postings
