All I wanted to do with this deduction was change its description slightly. So why does it say this about "type"?
Hi @Jean_10862158
Once any item is created, you cannot then go back later and change the type of it.
For example, if you've got a deduction item setup, you can't change that item to an earning item type.
With that said, this will not stop you from adding or changing the item description. Add or change your description and then click the save button and it will save your changes.
@Rav Thank you but as I was not changing the type, this still doesn't explain why I got this message when trying to slightly change its description.
Its a general message that appears when editing an existing pay item to advise and provide context on why the type field is non-editable.
The message itself is not specific to your editing of the description field.
