Issue/Introduction:

Following a AE upgrade, from 12.3.0 to 12.3.1, some Objects having added in Variables some Object Attributes like "$&JOB_TYPE#" fail with this error:

U00020315 Runtime error in object 'OBJECT_NAME', line '' : The system value '&$JOB_TYPE#' cannot be changed

If we remove the Variable $&JOB_TYPE# from the Object the Object runs OK.

In version 12.3.0, the Object does not fail but there is no value stored in the Variable as the log shows the following:

U00020206 Variable '&$JOB_TYPE#' was stored with value ''.

Cause:

Bug fix on AE 12.3.1, Object Attributes were not being checked.

Environment:

Release : 12.3

Component : AUTOMATION ENGINE

Resolution:

The Object Attributes like JOB_TYPE are Internal Object Attribute that cannot be modified since version 12.3.1.

In order to avoid the problem, remove from the Variables / Prompset the Object Attributes as they can be modified at runtime.
