The error means the project status prevents entity changes. On another internet-connected tablet, sign in, open the affected project, tap “Start,” then refresh or reopen it on the original tablet. If unsuccessful, check for another editor, refresh both devices, sign in again, or contact support.
Error Message
User is not permitted to make entity changes at the current project status.
This message indicates that the project is currently in a status that does not allow the user to make changes or update project entities. In some cases, the project may not have been fully started or synchronized correctly on the original tablet. The following workaround can be used to start the project from another device and then refresh the original tablet.
Prerequisites
You must have access to another tablet with the Locusview application installed. This second tablet will be used to open the affected project and initiate the project start process.
You must also have valid login credentials for the Locusview application and sufficient permissions to access the affected project. Confirm that you can sign in successfully before beginning the workaround.
Step-by-Step Workaround
Open the Project on a Different Tablet
On a second tablet, open the Locusview application and sign in using your valid account credentials. Make sure the device has a stable internet connection so that the application can retrieve the latest project information.
After signing in, search for the affected project and open it. Verify that you have selected the correct project before proceeding to the next step.
Start the Project
Once the project is open on the second tablet, tap the “Start” button. Allow the application enough time to process the request and complete synchronization. The project should start successfully from this device.
Refresh the Original Tablet
Return to the original tablet where the error was initially displayed. Refresh the Locusview application so that it can retrieve the project’s updated status from the server. If necessary, close and reopen the project or restart the application to trigger a fresh synchronization.
The project should now display a started status, and you should be able to continue working with it and make the required entity changes.
Troubleshooting Tips
Before starting the workaround, confirm that both tablets are connected to the internet. A stable connection is required for the project status to synchronize correctly between the devices and the Locusview system.
If the error continues after completing these steps, verify that no other user currently has the project open in edit mode. Another active editing session may prevent the project status from updating or may restrict changes to project entities.
If the project still cannot be started, refresh both devices again, sign out and back in to the Locusview application, and then retry the process. If the issue remains unresolved, contact your system administrator or Locusview support team for further assistance.
