APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
When a list variable bound to a table is evaluated to be empty in a validation script and the validation framework is set to show a message to indicate this state, the validation error does not show. PRODUCTS AFFECTED: IBM Business Process Manager (BPM) Advanced IBM BPM Standard IBM BPM Express
Local fix
Problem summary
The validation on the table was removed with interim fix JR56592 because -If there are 50 cells in a table, each having a validation error, 50 validation errors would show below the table, which would be too a long list. -The table being only a container, it's not necessary to have validation errors to display at the table level; they should just be isolated to the cells. We did not consider the use case highlighted in this APAR
Problem conclusion
A fix will be included in IBM BPM V8.5.7 cumulative fix 2016.12 that re-establishes the capability to display validation markers on the Table, not only the cells within it. To determine whether the cumulative fix is available and download it if it is, complete the following steps on Fix Central: 1. On the Select product tab, select WebSphere as the product group, IBM Business Process Manager with your edition from the WebSphere options, All as the installed version, and All as the platform, and then click Continue. 2. In the Text field, enter "cumulative fix", and click Continue.
