How To Fix AP227 - Carryforward from current measures/app.requests is final!

AP227 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: AP - Investment program messages

• Message number: 227

• Message text: Carryforward from current measures/app.requests is final!

What causes this issue?

During the closing of the old approval year, you are transferring
measures or appropriation requests from the current approved values of
the old approval year to the current approved values of the new
approval year.
This step cannot be reversed. This means:
Any reassignment (assignment or removal) of the transferred measures or
appropriation requests is now possible only on the investment program
in the new approval year. This applies particularly to the repeat runs
of the function <LS>Open new approval year</>. Repeat runs can no
longer automatically remove the assigment of the transferred measures
or appropriation requests in the new approval year (for example, if
they were closed in the meantime).
If you used budget distribution from program positions to the measures,
this function can now be carried out only from the investment program
in the new approval year.

How to fix this error?

You could choose to wait before carrying out the function <LS>Close old
approval year.</> This has the following advantages:
Each time you carry out a repeat run of the function <LS>Open new
approval year</>, the values of the measures/appropriation requests
carried forward to the investment program of the new fiscal year
continue to be updated. (For example, any measures that were closed or
appropriation requests that were rejected between the two runs are then
automatically removed from the carryforward to the investment program
of the new approval year.)
Budget distribution can take place from the investment program of the
old approval year <ZH>and</> the new approval year.
