Problem using set up nearby device

[AC Question]

I have just bought a moto G4 with android 7 and am trying to set it up from my old moto e 2nd generation which has the uogrqde to android 6. The devices connect successfully via bluetooth and the codes appear on both screens but as soon as I press next, it comes up with an error message saying there was a problem.

Is it possible to set up an android 7 phone from a phone running android 6b Anyone else had this?
