Erros while staffing with WFD

Question

Hi guys,
I'm trying to use WFD for resource staffing but I always get the following error messages:
Error icon - Error in cProjects; Maximum allowed required capac ity was exceeded
Warning icon - cProject warning; Time was converted from 5,00 MIN to 0,01 FTE - rounding errors are possible
Warning icon - Required/Planned capacity of Demand Developer does not match
In the above case I was staffing a person for 5 minutes (to be sure that I wasn't overstaffing), while the required capacity of the Demand in WFD shows me 4 FTE's (consulting days of 8 hours each day). I tried that with two persons, one that has 10:29 hours of availability and one that has 0:00 hours of availability, and in both cases I get the same messages.
In cProjects I had set the "Required Capacity" of role Developer to "4,0 Con.Day" (which was reflected to WFD). And I assigned the role a task with 3 FTE's of work, so the "Total Work" of that role shows me "3,0 Con.Day".
Does anyone know what's wrong? Required capacity of the demand is 4 FTE, and I was trying to staff someone for 5 minutes, which was converted to 0,01 FTE and is way smaller than 4 FTE. So I didn't understand why I got the first error message in this case. And looking at the third error message, what does it mean?
Thanks!

Hi!
Check SAP Note 866776:
<h6>The time units that can be transferred from RPA to cProjects must be defined as allowed time units in cProjects. You must specify at least those time units in cProjects that are marked as primary units of measurement for the ISO code.
Checking primary units of measurement and ISO code:
Transaction cuni:
On the detail screen under ALE/EDI, check the primary source code selection for each time unit.
Allowed time units in cProjects:
Customizing:
Collaboration Projects > Basic Settings > Define Time Units</h6>
We have such problem, when we used time unit "H - Hour". After we have set "Hr - Hours" the issue have solved.
