The user does not have write permission for the goal-score field.

In Legacy Goal Management, the goal-score field could be modified by users if they had the ability to edit goals. With Latest Goal Management, users need to have the write permission to modify the goal-score field or any fields that directly affect the goal-score field.

The permission needs to be updated in the Goal Plan XML, and this can only be modified via Provisioning. 

As a customer, you do not have access to Provisioning. Please engage your Certified Partner to implement the fix. If you do not have a certified partner, you can look for one using 2149831 - SAP Professional Services / SAP Certified Partner / SAP Account Management Team [SuccessFactors Cloud].
