Attributes - Person/Org relevance indicator can not be changed - assignments exist

[taelmana]

Hi,

We're facing following issue:

1. we've created an attribute set with attributes:

2. We've assigned the attributes to 1700 customers via data workbench successfully.

3. Next, we would like to assign attributes to an account manually. On the account, the attribute set was not visible. In documentation we found following:

"If the marketing attribute set is to be assigned to an account, select the Organization-Relevant checkbox."

Apparently it was not necessary to enable the checkbox to assign the attribute set to accounts via data workbench, but it seems that it needs to be enabled for manually purpose since the attribute set became visible to add on accounts.

So we selected this checkbox, but now we would like to disable the checkbox because our end-users may not add attributes manually to the account, and we receive following error message:

"Person/Org relevance Indicator can not be changed - assignments exist"

Is there a possibility to disable the checkbox without the deletion of the attribute set on all accounts which are assigned to this attribute set?

Looking forward to your feedback!

Regards,

Anne

This is (as-of <=release version 1908) an intended check to avoid changes to the BusinessAttributeSet controlling parameters as soon as concrete assignments exist . So it is not possible to chnage this once it is selected and there exists and assignemnt of these attributes with master data

This might be checked in one of the upcoming releases, whether this check is required or we can "relax" the logic in that case.
