Hi Vinodh
At first sight this does seem rather strange.
Perhaps the intention was to block direct modification of an existing account balance, but not to block adding a new balance of a different type. I can understand why we would not want to allow direct modification of the balance amount, it should be done only as part of a financial transaction (payment, refund, credit, bill run, etc.).
I plan to open a defect report so that we can discuss internally within the Open API team.
Hope it helps

Subject: TMF666 AccountBalance sub-resource
Dears,
I have a question about PATCH /billingAccount/{id} operation.
AccountBalance sub-resource is documented as non-patchable attribute. How a new AccountBalance type can be added to the BillingAccount or how an exisiting AccountBalance can be modified?
