Sievo error savings initiative double counted across two categories

• The workflow fails with this exact problem: Sievo error savings initiative double counted across two categories. - The same failure repeats on retry with unchanged inputs. - A task in this workflow is blocked until this is resolved.

Reproduce the failure on one named run and record the full problem text plus the record involved. Verify: The savings initiative is opened in Sievo, both category assignments are visible on the record, and the doubled amount is reproduced in the category rollup, not only seen in a log.

Check the source of truth before changing anything. Verify: Compare the initiative total in the rollup against the initiative record itself and against the sum of its underlying savings lines, and confirm the rollup is exactly double before changing assignments.

Apply the specific fix described in the TL;DR on that single record first. Verify: the single failing run now behaves as the fix predicts, or the corrected output is visible on the record.

Check neighbouring records or steps that share the same template, library entry or integration setting, because this class of failure rarely affects only one item. Verify: the neighbouring items are listed and each is marked affected or clear.

Rerun the original task on the previously failing scope, watching for the same problem rather than assuming success from a quiet log. Verify: the task completes and the original problem does not appear.

Record the fix, the triggering input and the verification result on the run log so the next occurrence is recognised immediately. Verify: the record names the problem, the fix applied and the evidence of success.

Problem query: Sievo error savings initiative double counted across two categories

TL;DR: Sievo counts the same savings initiative twice because the initiative is assigned to two categories and the rollup sums both assignments instead of counting the initiative once under its primary category. Fix it by opening the initiative in Sievo, removing the duplicate category assignment so only the primary category remains, recalculating the reporting period, and confirming the initiative total appears once in the category rollup before trusting the wider savings report.
