APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Load chart will not display in Graphical Scheduling-Large
  Projects and Graphical Scheduling when the user has a time zone
  setup and cross multiple days.
  
  STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
  1. Choose an user without Time Zone setup
  2. Create an work order with 20 h duration and check
  Interruptible flag
  3. Add 2 tasks with a duration of 10 hours each - make sure the
  Interruptible flag is TRUE
  4. At the resource level add for each Task a Craft(Elect) with
  quantity 1
  5. In Graphical Scheduling or Graphical Scheduling-Large Project
  create a worklist based on this work order
  6. Select a shift with 8 hours working time
  7. Check the Load chart of resources
  
  
  The load displays 16 hours on the first day and 4 hours in the
  second day
  
  
  8. Define a Time Zone for the user like GMT+1
  9. Go back to the Graphical Scheduling and open the same record
  10. Adjust the Start at 7AM new Shift
  
  11. Check the Load chart of resources
  
  
  RESULT:
  
  The load gets displayed just on the first day and the second is
  displayed without load.
  
  
  EXPECTED RESULT:
  
  The load should display fine even if the user has a time zone
  set up so the load should appear in multiple days to same as
  when no Time Zone is setup.
