Good afternoon, I have an issue while I am trying to create a project.

&#160; &#160; "details": [

&#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; "name": "project.template.id",
&#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; "code": "invalid",

&#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; }
&#160; &#160; ]
}

Expected result: The project is created. 
 Actual result: The project is not created due to projectTemplate.id is invalid ( although the project template id is stated in the portal) . 
 Description: When attempting to create a new project, I get the error mentioned above.

Hi Ammar Alhabib , 
 
 We investigated the issue and found that the project template that you are trying to use does not include a pricing model attached to it. 
 There are several resources that must be attached : pricing model, translation engine, workflow, file type configuration. 
 
 On our side we will improve the details around error handling. 
 Thank you for raising this.

Hi Maria Miron, 
 Yes it is solved as you mentioned. 
 However, in this case, the pricing model in creating project template must be mandatory, same as others mandatory steps. So, you should not allow users to create a project template without selecting pricing model. You should always protect users from being in these kind of situations. Thanks again. Best regards, Ammar
