PM52068: Error: Id # ?Document_Type_ID? (Definition, xxxxy) missing GUID) seen in the 'V?R log file' generated.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Description:  Error: Id #  ?Document_Type_ID? (Definition,
  xxxxy) missing GUID) is seen in ?Verify and Repair log file?
  which is been generated for an encyclopedia. This is a result of
  a bug in System Architect because in  System Architect assigns
  GUID, and manages GUID. Hence it should not lead to ?missing? or
  invalid GUID errors.
  
  
  
  Expected Result: System Architect should be able to indentify
  invalid/missing GUID value for the underlying file table of an
  artifact in order to get past the GUID errors.
  
  Actual Result: Currently in System Architect  the underlying
  file table of an artifact does contain invalid / missing GUID
  value which System Architect is unable to identify. This might
  be caused because of improper import of the data or misleading
  operation carried out on that artifact. Hence leading to GUID
  error as mentioned below :
  
  Error: Id # ?Document_Type_ID? (Definition, xxxxy) missing GUID.
  
  Steps to Reproduce:
  
  1. Launch System Architect.
  2. Open an encyclopedia  in System Architect.
  3. Run  ?Verify and Repair? for the encyclopedia  and notice the
  error message mentioned below in the ?Verify and Repair log
  generated?  :
   Error: Id # ?Document_Type_ID? (Definition, xxxxy) missing GUID
  is seen in ?Verify and Repair log file? which is been generated
  for an encyclopedia.
  
  
  We can get past the error message by following the suggestions
  mentioned below:
  
  Identify the diagram name, the artifact belongs to and select
  all the artifacts present on the diagram canvas .
  
  Ie; Select Ctrl-A, followed by Ctrl-X ?? Ctrl-V. Then save the
  diagram.
  
  Alternatively, you may select all the artifacts present on the
  diagram canvas and move them slightly. Now save the diagram
  
  The above suggested method is a manual way of getting past the
  error message.
  
  When there are many 1000?s of this error the manual fix advice
  is not really helpful. Client generally imports the data by
  performing CSV import/export activity.
