Symptoms

On : 12.2.5 version, Bills

The resources form BOMFDORS is prompting for a variance account for an uncosted resource.
This happens when you pull up a costed resource via the find icon, and then you pull up another uncosted resource via the find icon and want to perform some maintenance.
It acts like the costed information from the previous record does not clear itself, and then when you pull up an uncosted resource and try to perform maintenance, you will be prompted to enter variance account information.
If you completely exit the form, then bring up the uncosted resource and perform the maintenance, you will be able to update the record without any problems.
