Group Reporting Balance Validation - errors in new functionality provided in 202502 upgrade

[SAPSupport]

Hi, I have two issues with the Group Reporting New Balance validation setup testing in the starter system

1. Consunits and Consgroup aren't available in the selection dropdown in the Assign Rule Group for Valance Validation App for each of the tasks
2. The consolidation monitor is still looking for the old task (category 70) after the assignment of the new task S2980 into the consolidation monitor task group Z20.

There are several steps when you want to configure this balance validation.

First,  You need to activated the feature Toggle for FE of the Balance Validation (FINCS_BV_ADAPTATION) in the configuration activity Activate Features based on help Balance Validation

Second, display, change, and create validation rules and rule groups and activate them for validation in app  Manage Balance Validation Rules and Rule Groups

Thirdly,  Use this app Assign Rule Groups for Balance Validation to assign rule groups to consolidation units and consolidation groups (depending on the valid execution category setting made in the Define Balance Validation Tasks configuration activity), special version, and period. The assignment is version-dependent. 

Finally, you can use these validation in Data/Consolidation monitor.

Thanks for the reply. I have setup as per the instructions and can run the new validation tasks ok, however I still receive the error message in the consolidation monitor and can not see the consunits in the assignment drop down as per my original issue.
