APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • During the pull request process, the DOE validates whether the
    target application contains all necessary objects. However, some
    required objects such as Aliases, Indexes, or Triggers may have
    been created outside of UMS and are therefore not recognized by
    the application. This results in validation failures when
    raising or merging pull requests.
    
    To address this, we plan to introduce an enhancement in the UMS
    UI that allows users to update or refresh the application. This
    feature will automatically synchronize and retrieve missing
    objects into the application, resolving issues related to pull
    request operations.
    

Local fix

  • Workaround is to use the Application PUT API to manually update
    the application.
