3314378 - When trying to reimport a planning model in target system, user without planning license falls into "Failed import: 'The resource does not exist, or you do not have permissions to update it'"

User without Planning Pro License cannot reimport a package containing planning model that already exists in target SAC system.

When attempting to reimport the existing planning model in target system, the error message below is displayed:

• The resource does not exist, or you do not have permission to update it 

1. Get a user that does not contain Planning Pro License
2. Import a package containing planning model into target system (the target system does not have this planning model yet)
3. See the import was successfully completed
4. Now, try to reimport the same package into target system (the target system now has the planning model). 
5. See that the model fails to be reimported with following error message: The resource does not exist, or you do not have permission to update it
6. You can reimport the model with or without new data and the behavior would be the same.

This is a by design behavior. Users without planning licenses won't be able to update planning models as they don't have authorization to save date into this model type.

Create, update, and delete planning models are features only available to Planning Professional License.

Assign Planning Pro License to users who are supposed to work with transport of planning models.
