Cause
The subscription which belongs to the account is not synchronized with the service plan - there are obsolete resources which are not present in the service plan.
The root cause of the situation is Software Related Issue PBA-83477 'Account is transferred to new vendor in OA but not in BA'
Resolution
In order to workaround the issue, follow the next steps:
- Synchronize the subscription: PCP > Billing > Operation > Customers > Subscription > Synchronize > check 'Remove obsolete resource(s)' > Synchronize
- Execute API-method
pem.changeAccountOwnerto change the vendor on OA side back to initial - Transfer the account from BA control panel
