Settlement error -WBS not used-but locked

[Former Member]

Hi,

For certain new Project/WBS ,We released then Locked certain WBS because we are not ready for them to be used right away.

Nothing is posted to that WBS yet.

When we run settlement(CJ8G) , get the error - Actual settlement is not allowed .

Why is this WBS picked up when nothing is posted to the WBS?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

   If nothing is posted to that wbs, then there is no need to lock that WBS for settlement purpose.

Also, if any actuals have been posted, then create one more settlement profile with "not for settlement" option and set this profile in that particular wbs as a parameter.

hi,

in hierarchy of wbs elements if your wbs is sub wbs of locked one then system not allow you to post settlement.
