Downloading IBM Business Process Manager V8.5.7 Cumulative Fix 2017.03

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• To efficiently store the results of team filter services in team
  assignments that are specific to the user task instance, IBM
  Business Process Manager (BPM) determines whether the results of
  multiple invocations of the same team filter service in a
  process are semantically the same. The returned members and
  manager team setting determine if a group that already exists
  can be reused to assign tasks.
  However, when individual invocations of the team filter service
  return the same members and manager team but different values
  for the name property, IBM BPM incorrectly shares the task
  assignments.

Problem conclusion

• A fix will be incorporated into IBM BPM V8.5.7 cumulative fix
  2017.03 that ensures that the value of the name property
  returned by a team filter service is considered during the check
  to determine whether a group that already exists can be used to
  assign tasks.
