    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    Date variables had issues with displaying their values in
    coaches. Everything worked in debug, because in non-debug we do
    not have coach reload and all the data returned back to
    server and parsed by coach controller. In debug mode, coach
    reloads and all the data is being generated in different way.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Date properties are returned from server-side as a String
    represenations. They needed to be converted to javascript Date
    objects in order to not break the DateTimePicker functionality
    in normal mode.
    
    Fix is available on FixCentral.
    
    Install/Dependency information is available in the readme.txt
    on FixCentral. When the user goes to the download files page
    in FixCentral, the readme will be available with the fix
    package as a separate download.
