JR41336: application status of a late-bound sub process is not considered when evaluating the current valid process template version

Version 7.5.1 Fix Pack 1 for the IBM Business Process Manager products

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• In a late-binding scenario, the decision on which process
  
  template is invoked happens when the caller invokes the process.
  
  In this case, the version of the process that is currently valid
  is used. The currently valid version is the process with the
  latest valid-from date that is not in the future and whose
  application is not stopped.
  Without this fix, the determination of the currently valid
  version of the process does not consider the application state.
  
  If the application is stopped, this may result in the following
  error (sample exception)

  The fix add a check for the application status to find the
  currently valid process template.
