Version 8.5 Refresh Pack 7 for the IBM Business Process Manager products

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• With interim fix JR50481 applied, opening a coach in IBM Process
  Portal displays the coach in a new browser window or tab. You
  cannot restrict this behavior to only coaches that are launched
  when you open a dashboard item.
  
  PRODUCTS AFFECTED
  IBM Business Process Manager (BPM) Advanced
  IBM BPM Standard
  IBM BPM Express
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• The only configuration provided by interim fix JR50481 is the
  <launch-in-new-window-enabled> property (in 100Custom.xml). When
  this property is set to "true", each coach opens in a new
  browser window or tab. When this property is set to "false" (or
  not set at all), each coach opens in the Process Portal browser
  window or tab.
  

Problem conclusion

• A fix is available for IBM BPM V8.0.1.3 that adds a new
  Mashups_ConfigService property, dashboardsToOpenInNewWindow,
  that allows you to specify which dashboard services you want to
  launch in a new browser window or tab.
