You are probably trying to create a NEW PROGRAMME and not a NEW VERSION of the EXISTING PROGRAMME.
To create a new version of an existing OP:
In version 1+ of the OP the MS cannot modify the description (title) of an existing Priority Axis and the Priority cannot be deleted.
You can request to the SFC2007 Support Team to make some modifications of a Priority description, but only to make some grammatical corrections or to improve the definition of the Priority.
The Priority cannot be modifed to become a totally different one, especially when expenditure was declared against it.
If the original Priority is not used anymore, the remaining allocations should be put to zero and transferred to a new Priority.
