Error description

• PROBLEM:  Work order  Available Crew  table not being displayed
  PERFORMANCE ISSUE: N/A
  STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
  Conditions:
  1. Crew's  assigned labor  end date is empty
  2. NON-WORK  work date record created for the assigned labor
  person where the work date is the same as the crew's assigned
  labor effective date.
  STEPS TO REPLICATE:
  1. Replicated in TPAE 7606 IFIX 11 without any Industry Solution
  Go to Calendar application, select Calendar = DAY, Organization
  = EAGLENA
  - Change the end date to some time in the future
  - Select action -> Define/Apply shifts
  - Select  DAY , click on  Apply shift ,  Entire
  Calendar ,  OK
  2. Go to People application, select the person  SMITH
  - Make sure the  Primary Calendar  =  DAY , Primary
  Shift = DAY
  - Select action -> Modify Person Availability
  - Click New Row button on the  Modify Work Dates  section
  - Enter today's date,  start time 8:00 AM and end time of 5:00
  PM
  - Enter a reason code e.g. NON-WORK or synonym
  NOTE: this modified work date should be the SAME as the crew
  labor assignment "effective date" in step 5 below
  3. Go to the Crafts application, bring up a craft e.g. ELECT
  select the "Crew" checkbox
  standard rate is $17.00
  save
  Go to the Crew Types application
  Create a new Crew Type e.g. MAY
  Hourly rate defaults to 0.00
  Click New Row button to enter a required craft
  Position= LEADER
  Craft = ELECT
  Do not enter a Skill Level
  Save the record
  Hourly Rate becomes 17.00
  4. Go to the Crews application
  Create a new Crew e.g. MAY
  Enter the same crew type created above e.g. MAY
  DAY calendar and DAY shift
  Required craft has been copied to the Crew
  Save the record
  5. Go to the  Labor Assignments  tab
  Click  New Row  button at the  Assigned Labor
  section to
  create a Crew labor assignment
  Position = LEADER
  Labor = SMITH
  Craft = ELECT
  Effective date = today's date  (10/30/2017 08:00 AM)
  NOTE: make sure the end date is empty and the effective date is
  the same as the work date from step 2 above
  Save the record
  6. Go to Work Order Tracking application.
  Create a new work order e.g. MAY
  - Click on the  Assignment  tab
  - Click on the  New row  button
  - Click on the  Available Crew  button
   new Crew info is displayed (this is correct!)
  7. Repeat the same test with TPAE 7606 IFIX 11 with Utilities
  7.6.0.1 installed (I have an environment)
  In the last step, create a new work order, go to the Assignment
  tab
  click New Row button
  Click Available Crew
  The new crew information does NOT show up (THIS IS INCORRECT)
