Error: Reporting rule XYZ has been assigned, and cannot be changed or deleted.

XYZ stands for the reporting rule variant.

Cause

The reporting rule has been assigned, hence it cannot be changed or deleted.

Resolution

Reporting rule variant cannot be changed after it has been assigned to reporting rule version. 

If you want to make changes, you must create a new reporting rule variant by copying the variant that is already been assigned to the report rule version. Then, you can make changes to the newly copied variant.
