Description:
Submitting for Approval a cost plan containing a custom attribute of type "Number" may incorrectly result in the error message "Validation failure. Attribute: [attribute_id]. Cause: data_type" if the attribute was created recently, or at least since the application services were last restarted.
The issue is NOT reproduced with Partition Model on Project Object.
