IJ44466: FEATURE DATA REMAINS ON PM AFTER FEATURE IS DELETED FROM ASSET

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• PM.STARTMEASURE and PM.ENDMEASURE fields on the PM do not revert
  back to Asset values after the Feature is removed from the
  Asset; it is expected that these fields will re-populate with
  the Asset values instead of keeping the Feature values in these
  fields. The impact to the User is that incorrect values are now
  persistent in the PM.STARTMEASURE and PM.ENDMEASURE fields on
  the PM for the Linear Asset.
