PM16884: WCI: ITEMS WHICH FAIL TO SAVE IN THE WCI ARE REPORTED AS DELETED WHEN CONSUMING A CORRECTED FEED.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The WCI maintains a map of GUIDs (external CMS Id) to
  DocumentIds (WCM Ids). When an entry exists in this map and the
  DocumentId is invalid (if for example the item had been
  manually
  deleted or published) the WCI was setting the invalid item to a
  deleted document.
  
  A side effect of this behavior was that any erroneous entries
  in
  the GUID map would cause a document to be set as Deleted when
  really the map entry should have been cleared. This meant the
  GUID was flagged as deleted when it should not have been. GUIDs
  should only be flagged as deleted after a specific delete
  action.
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• The WCI was storing cleared references and deletions (via delete
  actions) in the same way. This caused errors where GUIDs that
  should have been cleared Eg from a failed save or from a publish
  action were being set as deleted.
  

Problem conclusion

• A change was made to separate the handling of cleared GUID map
  entries and explicit delete actions. Only delete actions will
  will set GUIDs as deleted.
  

Temporary fix
