Error description

  • If the time zone is set to Cairo, May 1, 2004 is missing;
    however April 29 is shown twice in the Date Time Picker. The
    issue was originally reported with this specific version of
    browser:
    
    Internet Explorer
    Version : 11.0.9.9600.18697
    Update versions : 11.0.43 (KB4021558)
    
    PRODUCTS AFFECTED
    IBM BPM Advanced
    IBM BPM Standard
    IBM BPM Express
    

Local fix

  • Enter the date into date time picker's text box instead of using
    the calendar pop up to pick the date.
    

Problem summary

  • This issue is related to the fact that Cairo's time zone
    observes daylight saving time at midnight and, while calculating
    the dates for the days of the month, the JavaScript engine in
    Internet Explorer 11 converts "April 2004 30 00:00:00.000" to
    "April 2004 29 23:00:00.000".
    

Problem conclusion

  • A fix that compensates for the incorrect date conversion will be
    available in a future release of IBM BPM.
