Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Hi

Im cutting and pasting a wbs level to lower level but this message comes out



Cannot paste because the result will exceed the limit of WBS tree maximum levels.


has anyone encountered this before?

regards,
kier

Hi Kier
Open "admin preferences" --> "data limits" --> "EPS/WBS tree maximum levels". With the copy-action you would have exceeded that maximimum value. Increase and it will work. It counts from the highest EPS to the lowest WBS-level.
