APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• PROBLEM:   Incorrect duration of child work orders after
  running CPM
  
  STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
  1) Create a Work Order (estimated duration value 95.0 hours)
  Enter a Scheduled Start Date e.g. 11/07/19 12:35 AM
  Enter a Scheduled Finish (end date) e.g. 11/09/19 12:34 AM
  i.e. work order spans over 2 months
  Enter a duration of 95:00 hours
  2) Go to the Plans tab
  Click New Row button
  Expand the child work order
  NOTE: Scheduled start and finish dates have been copied from
  the parent
  Enter 9:30 hours as the estimated duration
  Click New Row button and enter 9:30 hours as the estimated
  duration
  Save the record
  i.e. Each child work order's estimated duration do NOT align
  with the children work orders' schedule dates
  3) Create a new schedule in Graphical Scheduling application
  Enter a schedule name
  Enter calendar and shift information
  Enter start and enter dates to cover a 2 month period e.g. from
  11 July - 11 Sept
  4)  Go to "Graphical View" and select the 2 child work orders
  5) Click "Create Constraints" icon on the toolbar
  6) Click "Zoom to Work " icon on the toolbar
  7) Select the parent work order and select the "Critical Path
  Method on ALL rows" icon
  
  RESULTS: After CPM is run, Gantt Chart shows that each child wo
  takes 2 months to complete. Each child should take 9:30 hours
  to complete
  
  EXPECTED RESULTS:  After CPM is run,  it should show the
  correct duration of the child work orders
