What does the error “There are no FOAPAL entries on this page that match the Primary Research Account on the Assign Job Page” mean?

If I try to save or submit my requisition, I get an error saying “There are no FOAPAL entries on this page that match the Primary Research Account on the Assign Job Page. Please ensure that the Primary Research Account is among the FOALs in the Financial Details section.”

What is the issue?

In the first page (Requisition Setup), you selected the dates, the student, the primary research account, and the type of job are indicated. However, on the second page (Payment Details), you changed the account in the Financial Details section and as a result the primary research account indicated on the Requisition Setup page is not part of the payment details.
