Issue/Introduction

Description:

If a resource has been financially enabled and if more than one OBS has been associated to the resource object, an RSM-0108 error will be generated if the user clicks save on the Admin Tool: Resource: OBS and Partitions page:

     RSM-0108: This object is financially enabled. Please change department on the Financial page.

   3. Create at least 1 level on the OBS and one Department (named 'DEPT1')
      
      
   4. Associate the OBS to the 'Resource' Object and the 'Project' Object
      
      
   5. Click 'Submit' button

   4. (no need to associate objects to this OBS)
      
      
   5. Click 'Submit' button

7. Admin Tool -> Finance: Setup -> Transaction Classes -> Create a 'LABOR' Transaction Class
   
   
8. Main Application -> Resources -> Select an existing Resource or create a new Resource
   
   
9. Click 'Financial' link -> Enter Resource Financial Properties -> Click 'Submit' button
   
   
10. Admin Tool -> Resources -> Select the same Resource for which financial properties were just entered
    
    
11. Go to OBS and Partitions page -> Click 'Save and Continue' button
    
    (There are no OBS fields and no error is generated as expected)
    
    
12. Admin Tool -> OBS -> Click 'New' button
    
    
    1. Create a new OBS structure that will be used for Access Rights
       
       
    2. OBS Name = 'My Security OBS'
       
       
    3. Create at least 1 level on the OBS and one Unit 'My Unit1'
       
       
    4. Associate the OBS to the 'Resource' Object
       
       
    5. Click 'Submit' button
       
       
13. Admin Tool -> Resources -> Select the same Resource from step #10
    
    
14. Go to OBS and Partitions page (now you see the security OBS = 'My Security OBS' shown in the OBS section)
    
    
15. Enter a value for the 'My Security OBS' field
    
    
16. Click 'Save and Continue' button

Expected: I should see that value entered, from the Admin Tool, in the OBS saved without errors.

Actual: But instead I see an error generated and the data on any OBS field is not saved. ERROR = RSM-0108: This object is financially enabled. Please change department on the Financial page.

Solution:

Workaround:

Make all OBS changes from the Main Application.

1. Main Application -> Resources
   
   
2. Select a Resource
   
   
3. Update all OBS data on the Resource General Properties page
   
   
4. Click 'Save' button
