Cannot modify the receiver table for an Audit Process after it has been executed at least once

If you cannot modify the receiver table for an audit process, clone the audit process and replace the original.

Symptoms

After an audit process runs at least once, you can neither remove nor add a receiver. You can also not modify the following properties for a receiver.

  • Action Req.
  • Cont.
  • Appv. if Empty

Causes

After an Audit Process runs at least once, the receiver table is locked and you cannot modify most of the properties.

Environment

Resolving the problem

The following steps enable you to modify the receiver table.

  1. Clone the audit process.
  2. Make changes to the cloned audit process.
  3. Delete the original audit process. However, if you do not want to lose the audit process history, you can rename the audit process.
  4. Rename the cloned audit process to the name of the original one.
