Troubleshooting

• Problem: Cannot reduce milestone value Solution: Check if existing payments or claims exceed the new value. Remove or adjust payments before reducing the milestone amount.
• Problem: Cannot delete a milestone Solution: Remove all associated payments and variations before attempting deletion. Milestones with financial activity cannot be deleted until cleared.
• Problem: Cannot change milestone status Solution: Remove any existing payments or variations against the milestone before changing its status to pending or draft.
• Problem: Deletion option greyed out Solution: Check for financial dependencies like payments and variations. Remove these connections before attempting to delete the contract.
