IJ51253: DEFAULT CONDITIONNUM FOR APPLICATIONAUTH ONLY WORKS WITH EVERYONE SECURITY GROUP

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• If you have a recent install of Maximo, you should have an
  EVERYONE Security Group.
  
  
  If you go into the Security Groups application, bring up the
  EVERYONE Group, click on the Applications tab, search for the
  "Work Order Tracking" application, and search for "Crew field"
  option in the bottom table, you will see that it has the
  "Condition" column set to "BMXCREWID".
  
  If you then find another Security Group that doesn't have access
  to the "Crew field" option for "Work Order Tracking" and you
  check the "Grant Access?" checkbox, you will see "BMXCREWID"
  appear in the "Condition" column.  (It may take a few seconds
  for it to appear.)
  
  Maximo instances that were upgraded from Maximo Versions earlier
  than Maximo 7.1 (?) may have a MAXEVERYONE Security Group
  instead of an EVERYONE Security Group.  If you repeat the above
  with a MAXEVERYONE Security Group, the default will not appear
  for the other Security Groups when "Grant Access?" is checked.
  
  Additionally, if users have changed the "Group for All Users"
  option on the "Security Controls" dialog in the "Security
  Groups" or "Users" application, they may have deleted the
  EVERYONE Security Group or not be using it.
  
  
  PERFORMANCE ISSUE:
  No
  
  STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
  1- If you go into the Security Groups application, bring up the
  EVERYONE Group, click on the Applications tab, search for the
  "Work Order Tracking" application, and search for "Crew field"
  option in the bottom table, you will see that it has the
  "Condition" column set to "BMXCREWID".
  
  2- If you then find another Security Group that doesn't have
  access to the "Crew field" option for "Work Order Tracking" and
  you check the "Grant Access?" checkbox, you will see "BMXCREWID"
  appear in the "Condition" column.  (It may take a few seconds
  for it to appear.)
  
  CURRENT ERRONEOUS RESULT:
