IJ36952: GRAPHICAL SCHEDULING - MODIFY WORK DETAILS DOES NOT UPDATE CONSISTENTLY.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• In Graphical Scheduling when using Modify Work Details to
  change the description, priority and supervisor it is very
  inconsistent in how it updates the Graphical VIew.
  
  When updating the description on Modify Work Details and
  clicking OK, it updates right away on the Graphical View tab.
  When updating the priority the user has to refresh before they
  can see the update on the Graphical View tab.
  When updating the Supervisor the user has to  discard and
  refresh to see the changes.
  
  So this is working 3 different ways.
  
  Reproduced in house on 7.6.1.2 with the current IFix.
  
  STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
  1. Create a work order with 2 tasks.   Give each task a
  duration of 3 or 4.
  2. In Graphical Scheduling create a new schedule with a valid
  Calendar and Shift and a Work Query to select the new work
  order.
  3. On the Graphical View tab use the toolbar button with
  tooltip 'Displays Menu to choose visible columns'
  to check the boxes for description, priority and supervisor if
  they are not already checked.
  4. Then check the checkboxes on the far left for the 2 tasks.
  5 Right click on one of the tasks and select Modify Work
  Details.
  6. On the Modify Work Details dialog change the description,
  priority and supervisor for the first task.
  7. Click OK.
  8. On the Graphical View you will see that the description has
  changed but not the priority or the supervisor.
  9. Click on Refresh Schedule and now you will see that the
  priority has changed.
  10. Click on Discard Changes and Refresh and now the supervisor
  will be changed.
  
  RESULTS:
  As steps 8, 9 and 10 show this is not consistent.
  
  EXPECTED RESULTS:
  For all to change at the same time.   If it needs a Refresh or
  a Discard Refresh that is ok as long as all are changed by the
  same action.
  
  REPORTED IN VERSION:
  7.6.1.2 with current IFix
