if any of the payment systems have been disabled

Check if a transfer has already been scheduled for the customer and/or partner + Read more ...
-
Check the ICOA screen in Process Direct or ICoA Log Information (ITLG) screen in Customer First for both customer and partner to see if a transfer has already been scheduled for either of them
-
When scheduling a transfer of a couple, only one member of the couple should be scheduled because the ICoA facility automatically schedules the partner for transfer
These edits appear when the transfer is completed and the user is attempting to transfer the record again:
-
E004IT - Customer already transferred today: can reschedule tomorrow
-
E078IT - Partner already transferred today: can reschedule tomorrow
-
E086IT - Customer has already been transferred from selected environment
These edits will appear when a transfer has been scheduled and the user is trying to schedule a second transfer:
-
E007IT - Customer is already scheduled for transfer (see ITSC)
-
E077IT - Partner is already scheduled/started (see ITSC)
-
E087IT - Partner has already been transferred from selected environment
For assistance in identifying and clearing edits, see Inter-environment Change of Address (ICoA) facility edits.

a record can be scheduled if there are outstanding activities
-
the outstanding activities in either the gaining or losing environment will prevent the transfer from completing
