IJ40686: RESCHEDULING WORK AFTER REMOVING THE SKILL LEVEL DOES NOT WORK AS EXPECTED

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• PROBLEM:
  If you remove the skill level from a labor entry in the work
  order then reschedule the date of the work, it does not work as
  expected.
  
  STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
  1) Create a new Work Order in Work Order Tracking. Set the
  schedule start and schedule finish to a date in the past.
  2) Assign a labor that has a skill level, eg. BALDWIN (skill
  level = FIRST CLASS).
  3) Delete the skill level from the entry.
  4) Save the Work Order.
  5) List tab > search for this Work Order.
  6) Click the Select Records check box and pick the Work Order.
  7) More Actions > Reschedule/Unassign Assignments.
  8) Reschedule for a date in the future > OK.
  
  RESULTS:
  You get a positive message indicating the record was
  rescheduled. When you open the Work Order, the scheduled date
  has not changed and the labor is removed.
  
  EXPECTED RESULTS:
  The scheduled date should change and the labor should be present
  without the Skill Level.
  
  ACTIONS TAKEN:
  L2 can recreate this on 7611. We also tested on 7612 and, in
  addition to the labor being removed, the scheduled dates are
  also removed (at 7612).
  
  REPORTED IN VERSION:
  Tivoli's process automation engine 7.6.1.1-IFIX20211201
