APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
In general, coach views assume that all binding data is initialized to a value. However, when a column is bound to a string, all the values must be set to an empty string ("") if they are not set to another value. If the data has an uninitialized (undefined) value for the column that is being sorted on, the rows are not sorted as expected. PRODUCTS AFFECTED IBM Business Process Manager (BPM) IBM BPM Express
Local fix
Initialize all string values. For example, set the value to an empty string ("").
Problem summary
The sort algorithm doesn't account for undefined or null values.
Problem conclusion
A fix that will allow undefined and null values, considering them as empty strings ("") for sorting purposes, will be available in a future release of IBM BPM.
