APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • Before the On change event is invoked, the Decimal coach view
    incorrectly sets the binding to a value of type String. Based on
     how JavaScript handles the '+' operator, a mathematical
    operation could perform a string concatenation instead of
    numerical addition.

Local fix

  • Move the logic from the Decimal coach view's On change event to
    the On blur event.
    

Problem summary

  • No additional information is available.
    

Problem conclusion

  • A fix that ensures the Decimal coach view sets the binding to a
    value of type Number as expected is planned for inclusion in a
    future release of Business Automation Workflow.
