  Symptom:
  The error message shown when certain conditions are followed
  is QueryFilterInvalid.
  
  Conditions:
  1. Make a project.
  2. Make a step in this project.  Step name is "step1".
  3. Make a step in this project.  Step name is "step2" and
  set non default value to access field.
  4. Save this configuration.
  5. Rename "step2" to "step1" and push "Save" button, then
  error message, "{QueryFilterInvalid}" appears.
  
  Note: This occurs with the root user as well
  

Problem conclusion

• The condition analyzer in the services layer is not finding
  the number for the bf_level to be an actual number. We
  currently use instanceof which is failing in this regard.
  
  Fix:
  Use Integer.parseInt to force the issue and get a number for
  sure. There will be no confusion using his method, or
  possible ambivalence from what the instanceof is showing us.
