I enabled opportunity splits and forecasting and since doing that an opportunity owner cannot change the opportunity currency from USD to EUR. They recieve the error below. As the System Admin I am able to make this change but I cannot find the permission to allow others to make this change. This user also has a profile which allows them to view/modify all opportunities.

 

Validation Errors While Saving Record(s)

 

There were custom validation error(s) encountered while saving the affected record(s). The first validation error encountered was "You do not have sufficient access to modify splits of this split type.".

    This appears to happen when the user making the change doesn't have visibility to the Opportunity Split field. If you go to Setup | Customize | Opportunities | Opportunity Splits | Settings, you'll see your org's split types. One of the columns for these split types is "Split Field." These show you the object and the field name of the split type field (e.g., "Opportunity - Amount" would be the Amount field on the Opportunity object).

     

    This appears to happen when the user making the change doesn't have visibility to the Opportunity Split field.

     

    Once you know what fields are your split type fields, you can navigate to those fields in setup (for the Amount example: Setup | Customize | Opportunities | Fields). Click on the field name, then click the "Set Field-Level Security" button. Check the "Visible" checkbox next to the user's profile, then Save.

     

    This should resolve that error; at least it worked for me! Good luck!
