APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • BOM serialization uses object factorization to be less verbose
    and thus more efficient. Only objects with distinct values are
    represented with their data, and when we have an object which
    is exactly the same as another already defined, it is simply
    represented by a root tag with attribute reference="xxx", and
    the referenced object has an attribute id="xxx".
    
    But the code concerning the report display in DC as well as the
    code concerning the generation of the input/output report excel
    file do not seem to handle this reference system.
    

Local fix

  • Manually duplicate these objects within the Excel scenario file
     in order to avoid reuse of the same objects

Problem conclusion

  • The code is fixed.
