Issues Applying Asset Package

JMathai — Wed, 18 Feb 2026 23:13:25 GMT

I am attempting to apply an asset package taken from UN v 4 and upgrading the network to v7. I keep getting this error (I created another rule for structural attachment). Can someone help?

This error is about the role missing for the rule. If you are attaching an asset to a structure, the AG/AT need to be listed as a "Container" in the B_AssociationRole table.

It also might occur if you have an Attachment Rule and the association type is a structure.

I added a contain association for the object but it now says I cannot have 2 roles for it.....

You can only have a single association role for an asset type. Instead of adding a second row, you should have updated the existing row in the asset package with the values you wanted.

Ok, so i just changed the association role for the asset type (Electric Cabinet Primary Junction Cabinet) from structure to containment in the roles table. Now it flags for Unknown in certain C_Associations fields. I feel like I am going down a rabbit hole.

Asset Group Unknown cannot be used in associations, rules, and other things. It is really a parking lot for data until it has a known asset group. You need to remove the associations to Unknown.
