What causes this issue?

The <LS>All Combinations</> check box cannot be deactivated due to a
conflict with other account hierarchies.

System Response

If you activate the <LS>All Combinations</> check box, you trigger the
system to create all possible combinations of hierarchy for an existing
single hierarchy. You might, for example, create the following
hierarchies:

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

Root account A
Assigned account B
Assigned account C
This would cause the system to include the following hierarchies:
Root account B
Assigned account A
Assigned account C
Root account C
Assigned account A
Assigned account B
This logical assumption cannot be made if other hierarchies that have
been created in the system already exist for one of the accounts. The
existence of these other hierarchies leads to a logical conflict.

How to fix this error?

If you have different hierarchies with the same root or assigned
accounts, then you need to delete all but one hierarchy. Once you have
ensured that the hierarchies do not overlap, you can activate this
<LS>All Combinations</> check box.
