Splunk Enterprise Security: Why can't I create an ad-hoc notable event after upgrade?

We have just upgraded Splunk Enterprise 6.4.1 / Splunk Enterprise Security 4.1.1 to Splunk Enterprise 6.5.2 with Splunk Enterprise Security 4.5.2.

When I try to create an Ad-Hoc Notable Event I get the following error in the UI:

Failed to create notable event: Not Found

Firefox Debug:

Answering my own question for documentation purposes.

Make sure you have upgrade Splunk_SA_CIM as well since modaction_adhoc has been moved into Splunk_SA_CIM in later versions. Former installation was running CIM 4.3.1, upgraded to 4.6.0 and it solved the issue.
