APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • A modify task component can be added to a human service in
    Process Designer to trigger modifications to certain properties
    during its execution. There are issues when the due date option
    is enabled with the behavior set to "user to choose".
    
    This will bring up a web page that does not allow the selection
    of the new due date and the continue button is not functional.
    
    PRODUCTS AFFECTED:
    IBM Business Process Manager (BPM) Advanced
    IBM BPM Standard
    IBM BPM Express
    

Local fix

  • Remove the modify task component from the human service.
    
    Then have users use the modify task feature of process portal to
    make changes to the due date. This is one of the options
    available in the drop down menu for a task in the work tab of
    Process Portal.
    

Problem summary

  • A styling issue renders the date picker unusable.
    

Problem conclusion

  • A fix is available for IBM BPM V8.5.5.0 that corrects the path
    to the referenced stylesheet allowing the page to behave
    correctly. On Fix Central
    (http://www.ibm.com/support/fixcentral), search for JR52352:
