To replicate this error message, go to Data Retention Management and create a purge request on PM or SM data.

In this example the user is inactive and the uploaded file contains the document ID of the PM form.

Add your required approvers and "launch Immediately".

When approving the job and checking the request the status shows "Completed with errors".

Click on "View result", download the zip file and open the "FormTemplateObjectType.csv" file.

Here we can see the failure within the notes section.

This is caused by the logged in employee who approves the request not having correct RBP permissions in Compensation & Variable Pay.

To correct this issue assign the two following permissions to the user.

• Manage Compensation> Manage Compensation Forms

• Manage Variable Pay> Manage Variable Pay Forms

Also - Starting 1H 2023 TemplateId is populated in the preview report of DRTM Performance Reviews Purge (VRP-13138). This is helpful to purge the correct form when the PM form is used as rating source when forecasting for the VRP plan.
