Symptom
- Unable to change the "Processing Status" of WBS in a project despite the availability of a budget for the WBS.
- The "Processing Status" of the parent WBS differs from that of the child WBS.
- "Processing Status" Button is greyed out.
Environment

Reproducing the Issue
- Navigate to "Project Control - Enterprise Project" and select the project.
- Select the project and click on the "Edit" option available at the header level.
- Choose "Edit In" and select "Project Planning".

- Select the specific WBS line within the project.
