APAR status

  • Closed as fixed if next.

Error description

  • When a % is included in the display mask of a field, errors can
    result if a user clicks inside a field containing that display
    mask and does nothing to the contents of the field and then
    clicks a Save button.
    

Local fix

  • Only fix available would be to remove the % from the display
    mask, which would require having a % as a separate label field
    next to the data entry field to be handled as a percentage.
    

Problem summary

  • Platform validation of percent fields fails when a
    custom mask including the % is used.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Platform validation of percent fields works correctly when a
    custom mask including the % is used. This is targeted to the
    1H2016 release.
    

Temporary fix
