| Limitation | Description |
Reported version

|---|---|---|
| Case business objects are not supported as search criteria for related case searches |
Symptom: Even though case business objects are defined in the Case Search view, the case business objects are not listed as search properties for related case searches.
Resolving the problem: No workaround is available. The use of case business objects in related case searches is currently unsupported.

23.0.2 |
| Limitation | Description |
Reported version
|
|---|---|---|
| A post-execution script runs twice in a postpone task of a heritage human service |
If you set a post-execution script in a postpone task of a heritage human service (deprecated), the script runs twice.
The postpone activity, which pauses the process, runs during the postponement of the process and at the resumption of the process. Thus, you might notice that the post-execution script runs once when the process enters the suspended state, and again when the process is resumed. A pre-execution script runs only once, when the process enters the suspended state.
Do not rely on the fact that the post-execution script runs twice. It is recommended that you do not build upon this behaviour in your process applications.

22.0.2 |
| Saving a case solution after adding a property to it fails with an HTTP 404 error |
Symptom: After you deploy the Gateway Service to an external Content Platform Engine that runs on IBM WebSphere Application Server Base v9.0.5.12 (Standard) and then add a property to a solution and try to save it, the following error occurs:
The solution cannot be saved because of the following error: java.net.ConnectException: HTTP (404) Not Found address: https://gcpe1.fyre.ibm.com:9443/WSCPEService/WSCPEServiceSoapService Cause: This issue occurs because although the Gateway Service deployment CMAC task deploys the baw-interface application successfully to the external Content Platform Engine server, the following class loader constraint violation error occurs in the Content Platform Engine application server logs:
java.lang.LinkageError: loading constraint violation when overriding method "javax/xml/rpc/handler/soap/SOAPMessageContext.getMessage()Ljavax/xml/soap/SOAPMessage;" during creation of class "com/ibm/ws/webservices/engine/MessageContext": loader "org/eclipse/osgi/internal/baseadaptor/DefaultClassLoader@7f46b612" of class "com/ibm/ws/webservices/engine/MessageContext" and loader "org/eclipse/osgi/internal/baseadaptor/DefaultClassLoader@79390200" of class "javax/xml/rpc/handler/soap/SOAPMessageContext" have different types for the method signature
Resolving the problem: To avoid the errors during the deployment to Content Platform Engine on WebSphere Application Server 9.0.5 Base version, deploy the Gateway Service to a Content Platform Engine that runs on WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment 9.0.5 or later instead. |
22.0.2 and 23.0.1 (fixed in 23.0.2) |
| BPEL application fails after upgrade |
Symptom: After you upgrade from Business Automation Workflow 22.0.1 to 22.0.2, you run a BPEL application. The BPEL application fails due to a java.lang.NoSuchMethodError called from class com.ibm.ws.bo.BOExtendedMetaData. The exception is logged in an FFDC file. For more information, see After upgrading to IBM Business Automation Workflow 22.0.2, java.lang.NoSuchMethodError thrown from class com.ibm.ws.bo.BOExtendedMetaData.
Resolving the problem: There is a dependency in IBM Business Automation Workflow 22.0.2 on the IBM WebSphere Application Server APAR, PH46154. Include this dependency by installing the interim fix for WebSphere Application Server 8.5.5.22 or by upgrading to 8.5.5.23. |
22.0.2 |
| Various problems might occur when you use business rules in IBM Case Manager | See Known problems, solutions, and best practices for business rules for case management in IBM Business Automation Workflow and ICP4BA for details. | 22.0.1 and later |
| Datetime property displays empty rows when not set with value in multi-cardinality primitive properties as well as in Case business objects |
Symptom: When a primitive Datetime property is not set with one or more values in any of the rows, the property displays empty rows, even though it contains other valid values in some of the row entries. Similarly, when a Case business object contains single and multi cardinality Datetime properties in addition to other property types, if the property is not set with a value it results in empty rows for the entire business object. Cause: When no value is set, it results in empty rows because of a Null Pointer Exception (NPE) that occurs while trying to process the value. Resolving the problem: Select a valid Datetime value for the property and do not leave values blank. |
22.0.1 and 22.0.2 |
| Introduction of a rate limitation for security reasons |
The <max-request-per-three-seconds> configuration parameter used in IBM® Business Automation Workflow and IBM Cloud Pak for Business Automation limits the number of REST calls to the server within a 3-second time interval to a default value of 30.
You can override the default value by adding or updating the <max-request-per-three-seconds> settings in your 100Custom.xml file, as shown in the following example.
<server merge="mergeChildren"> <max-request-per-three-seconds merge="replace">480</max-request-per-three-seconds> </server> |
