RS01333: INCONSISTENT MERGE OF EMPTY DECISION TABLE CELLS

Operational Decision Manager V8.5.1 Mod Pack
Operational Decision Manager V8.0.1.2 Fix Pack

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Using the Rule Designer decision table editor, when cells in a
  first column are merged, it is possible for cells in the column
  on the right to also be merged if they have the same empty
  content each.
  This is inconsistent with the behavior when the cells on the
  right have identical but non-empty values, in which case no
  merge occurs in the column on the right of the column being
  merged.
  

Local fix

• Use "insert new row" to recreate separate cells below the cell
  that was erroneously merge, and copy/paste the rows on the
  right of the erroneously merged cells, into the newly created
  rows.
  

Problem summary

• if the cells are empty they are not present in the model and
  therefore the merge does make them disappear.
  

Problem conclusion

• The code is modified to create empty cells to the right of
  themerged cells so that they will not be merged.
  

Temporary fix
