• Message class: AO - Appropriation requests - Master data / Customizing

• Message number: 283

• Message text: Program type &1 not the same as &2 of original request &3. Please correct

What causes this issue?

You want to assign appropriation request &V3& as the original
appropriation request.
However, original request &V3& is assigned to program type &V2&, which
does not agree with program type &V1& of the current appropriation
request.
The program type of all alternate appropriation requests has to be the
same, in order for them to be assigned to an investment program.

System Response

Appropriation request &V3& cannot be used as the original appropriation
request.

How to fix this error?

Enter a different original appropriation request, that has the correct
program type (&V1&).
Note
The program type is defined in Customizing. At the present time, you
cannot change it in the appropriation request.
