Error deleting a header job

Question

Issue:When attempting to delete a header job in our job list that is a sub of another header job, we encounter the following error:“An unrecognised error occurred - CommonRules_DoubleMaxValue” OR "The percentage complete value must be less than, or equal to 100.Description:It seems there is a database error related to calculating the percentage complete, which is causing the issue. The top level header is displaying a percentage complete value of 128%.Impact:This error prevents us from adding, deleting, or modifying any jobs or header jobs nested under the top-level header.&nbsp;

Hi MichaelC,
&nbsp;
The error message "The percentage complete value must be less than or equal to 100" in MYOB usually indicates a database error related to calculating the percentage complete. To fix this go to the job list window,&nbsp;go into each sub-job of header job 'projects.'. Take note of&nbsp;the percent complete figures. Zero out the percent figures. Once all amounts in the percent complete field have been removed from every sub-job, see if the program allows for you to type in a figure into the new job. If it does, accept it this time around; you can then go ahead and try inputting the relevant figures back into each sub-job window.
