3686445 - Error: Cannot Update Attribute in Assignment Block of Determination

Symptom

You are getting an error "Cannot Update Attribute XXX" in the assignment block of a determination (XXX represents the attribute/field).

Environment

SAP Sales Cloud and SAP Service Cloud Version 2

Reproducing the Issue

The scenario is valid for any entity. Here we will consider opportunity entity for example.

  1. Go to Settings
  2. Go to Extensibility Administration
  3. Go to Opportunity Service
  4. Navigate to Determinations
  5. Create new Determination using Forms
  6. Under Assignment Block, assign {XXX} = ( YY ); (Where XXX is the attribute name and YY is the value to be assigned)
  7. You get error "Cannot Update Attribute XXX"

Cause

You have set the field XXX as non updatable under Field Attributes and hence you are unable to update its value using Determination.

  1. Go Opportunity Service
  2. Go to Field Attributes tab
