Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED:  Process applications retrieving task        *
  *                  details using REST API.                     *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Task details returned by REST API       *
  *                      show the same values for startTime      *
  *                      and activationTime fields.              *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  When retrieving task details via REST API, the data for the
  fields startTime and activationTime are identical. However,
  these timestamps should be independent of each other as
  activationTime is the time at which the task was created and
  startTime is the time the task was started.
  

Problem conclusion

• Code changes have been made to query the proper timestamps
  from the task details. An interim fix is available on
  v8.0.1.1. The changes will also be integrated into the next
  fix pack.
