Error description

• There are 2 issues with creating and editing of data items for
  the TimeRangeGroup internal data type.
  
  
  1. When you try to add a Weekly Time Range, the Days can be
  selected, but the time fields (hour and minute) are missing.
  2. At the top level display of all the created TimeRangeGroups,
  the 'On Call' column is not populated.
  
  First issue with the missing time counters is a bit strange, the
  browser doesn't render any HTML after the weekday dropdown
  because it's using self closing tags in the dropdown field. I
  don't know the exact cause of this but it could be related to
  the uplift of the angularJS versions in FP20 (IJ28692) or FP
  FP18 (IJ18823).
  
  The second issue with the missing ON CALL field is a regression
  from IJ23564.
  

Local fix

• WORKAROUNDS:
  1.  Open /opt/IBM/tivoli/impact/wlp/usr/servers/ImpactUI/apps/I
  mpactUI.ear/impactAdmin.war/scripts/impactangular/dataitems/tim
  erange/editTimeRange.html in a text editor.
  
  Change the following two lines, replace the self closing HTML
  tag for the <select> tag.  I.e. Replace the <select /> to use a
  closing tag such as <select></select>
  
  
  Line 95:
  <select id="startdayofweek"
  ng-model="currentTimeRange.startDayOfWeek" ng-options="dow as
  dow for dow in daysOfWeek" ng-change="enableSave()" />
  change to :
  <select id="startdayofweek"
  ng-model="currentTimeRange.startDayOfWeek" ng-options="dow as
  dow for dow in daysOfWeek" ng-change="enableSave()" ></select>
  
  And repeat for Line 116:
  <select id="enddayofweek"
  ng-model="currentTimeRange.endDayOfWeek" ng-options="dow as dow
  for dow in daysOfWeek" ng-change="enableSave()" />
  change to :
  <select id="enddayofweek"
  ng-model="currentTimeRange.endDayOfWeek" ng-options="dow as dow
  for dow in daysOfWeek" ng-change="enableSave()" ></select>
  
  The second issue with the missing ON CALL field is a regression
  from IJ23564.
  
  If you want a short term workaround, edit /opt/IBM/tivoli/impac
  t/wlp/usr/servers/ImpactUI/apps/ImpactUI.ear/impactAdmin.war/sc
  ripts/impactangular/components/impactGrid/impactGrid.html
  
  At line 36, you need to change the cell value from
  {{row.DATA[row.MAPFIELD[column]] }} to
  {{row.DATA[row.MAPFIELD[column]] || row.DATA[column] }}
  
  So, line 36, changes from:
  <td role="gridcell" ng-repeat="column in dataitems[0].FIELDNAMES
  track by $index" ng-keydown="handleKeyDown(this, $event)"
  tabindex="{{ !showKeyColumn && !showEditColumn && $parent.$index
  == 0 && $index == 0 ? 0: -1}}"
  aria-describedby="{{column}}_header" aria-label="{{
  row.DATA[row.MAPFIELD[column]] | accessicell }}">
  {{row.DATA[row.MAPFIELD[column]] }}</td>
  to:
  <td role="gridcell" ng-repeat="column in dataitems[0].FIELDNAMES
  track by $index" ng-keydown="handleKeyDown(this, $event)"
  tabindex="{{ !showKeyColumn && !showEditColumn && $parent.$index
  == 0 && $index == 0 ? 0: -1}}"
  aria-describedby="{{column}}_header" aria-label="{{
  row.DATA[row.MAPFIELD[column]] | accessicell }}">
  {{row.DATA[row.MAPFIELD[column]] || row.DATA[column] }}</td>

  * LDAP data types.                                             *

  After selecting the Weekly Time Range Type, the hour and minute
  input controls for the Start Time and End Time fields do not
  appear on-screen.
  
  Additionally,  when viewing data items in the TimeRangeGroup
  grid, the On Call field is always blank.

  field and empty On Call cell.
  
  The fix for this APAR is contained in the following
