PM12881: values in attributes based on type 'username' are removed from b aselines when the user is deleted

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Problem
  If you have an attribute which is based on the 'user name' type,
   removing the user on which values are based will remove the dat
  a from display in any baseline.
  
  To Reproduce
  - create users tom, dick and harry
  - create a module with 3 objects
  - create an attribute based on the 'user name' type
  - edit each object so that tom, dick and harry are set for one o
  bject each
  - save module. baseline module. close module
  - delete user tom from DOORS
  - reopen the module. tom is missing from object 1
  - open the baseline. tom is also missing from object 1
  
  
  Possible Workarounds
  add the user back to the user list. The user can then be disable
  d so that they cannot get back into DOORS (if desired) and the n
  ame will re-appear in the baseline.
