Error description

• The problem is related to the button that repeats in the Table,
  the JS code generated does not generate a unique dom id so the
  first button in the table is always found and clicked by the
  event handler code.
  

Local fix

• To correct the issue the user can use a
  modified version of the CoachDesigner.xsl.
  
  Steps to work around the issue:
  =====
  1. Open your process app in Process Designer
  2. In the library panel on the left, expand Toolkits and then
  System Data
  3. Click on All or Files and type xsl to filter the content
  4. Double click on CoachDesigner.xsl open it in the asset editor
  5. In the File section of the editor click the large folder
  icon, this will open the default system browser to save the file
  6. Use the web browser to save the file
  
  7. Edit the file as shown here
  Current code in CoachDesigner.xsl:
  <xsl:template match="tw:Button">
  <xsl:variable name="generateValidationScript"
  select="string-length(tw:EventHandler[@tw:event=&apos;onClick&ap
  os;]/tw:ClientScript/text()) > 0"/>
  <xsl:variable name="generateButtonOnClickScript"
  select="@tw:decisionPoint"/>
  <xsl:variable name="button_id">
  <xsl:value-of select="ancestor::*[@tw:id][position() =
  1]/@tw:id"/>
  <xsl:text>_</xsl:text>
  <xsl:value-of select="@tw:id"/>
  </xsl:variable>
  
  Change the code to the following:
  <xsl:template match="tw:Button">
  <xsl:variable name="generateValidationScript"
  select="string-length(tw:EventHandler[@tw:event=&apos;onClick&ap
  os;]/tw:ClientScript/text()) > 0"/>
  <xsl:variable name="generateButtonOnClickScript"
  select="@tw:decisionPoint"/>
  <xsl:variable name="button_id">
  <xsl:call-template name="getId">
  <xsl:with-param name="startingId"
  select="ancestor::*[@tw:id][position() = 1]/@tw:id"/>
  </xsl:call-template>
  <xsl:text>_</xsl:text>
  <xsl:value-of select="@tw:id"/>
  </xsl:variable>
  
  8. Now with the changes saved to the CoachDesigner.xsl go back
  to Process Designer
  9. In your process app create a Design File using the xsl file
  saved and edited in the previous steps
  10. In your Process App Settings, expand the Heritage Coach
  Designer Settings and for Coach XSL select the Design File
  created in step 9
  11. Save the Process App Settings and try the scenario
  12. If the issue still occurs, make a change to the human
  service and try again

Problem summary

• Clicking a button within table does not select row in which the
  button is clicked but rather the first button in the table is
  always found and clicked.
  
  AFFECTED EDITIIONS:
  IBM Business Process Manager (BPM) V8.0.1 Advanced, Standard,
  and Express
  
  PROBLEM DETAILED DESCRIPTION:
  The problem is related to buttons that repeat in a Table, the
  Javascript code generated does not create unique Document Object
  Model (DOM) ids so the first button in the table is always found
  and clicked by the event handler code.
  

Problem conclusion

• A fix for IBM BPM 8.0.1.2 is available where buttons are now
  generated with unique DOM ids so they can be found correctly
  from within any of the event handling code.
