APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
When creating a large web activity (e.g. 50+ parallel paths) in Management Center, issues may arise when attempting to open the Activity again. The Management Center may hang or be unable to properly display the Activity content.
Local fix
Split the single activity into many activities (each with a smaller number of paths) setting priorities to the activities in a sequence. For example, the first would have priority 1, the second 2, then 3, and so on. All of these activities will have the same Marketing spot as their starting point, but the different activities will execute only their share of the actions that follow. On the store front, the eMarketingSpot where this activity displays will have to be set to receive one element as the result. This is to guarantee the results will come from one activity and not from any overlap you may have in the targets of the activity.
