  • Show details Hide details
  • What causes this issue?

    Project profile &V2& specifies that project definition &V1& can only
    have one root, which means, that only one WBS element can be at level
    1.

    System Response

    You cannot create any new WBS elements for this project definition
    (with the function "Create individual element".)
    You cannot save the WBS if there are several WBS elements at level 1.
    If you are working with a standard WBS, this message is simply a
    warning; the system still saves the standard WBS. However, if you
    createa WBS by copying this standard WBS, you must first change the
    structure before you save.

    How to fix this error?

    Change the structure so that only one WBS element is at level 1.
    You can do this in one of the following places:
    In the operative structures menu: Change work breakdown structure
    In the project planning board
    In the planning menu: <LS>Project -> Structure</>.
