IV96965: WOT - CONSTRAINT - ALLOWS CIRCULAR VALUE TO BE ENTERED

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Steps to reproduce:
  
  1.go to Work Order Tracking application and create a Work Orders
   parent/child relationship. (For all work orders following
  fields need to be populated under Work Order tab > Scheduling
  Information:
  Scheduled Start, Scheduled Finish, Duration. The Parent Duration
  should be consistent with Children.
  PH02 parent of PH02-A5015
  PH03 parent of PH03-A5001
  PH05 parent of PH05-A5018
  
  2.create constraints for following work orders:
  PH02-A5015 is predecessor of PH03-A5001 is predecessor of
  PH05-A5018 is
   predecessor of PH03-A5001
  -select PH03-A5001 and on the Work Order tab go to Scheduling
  Information section > Predecessors field
  -click on 'Select More Work Records' and select PH02-A5015 as a
  predecessor
  -select PH05-A5018 and follow steps above to set a PH03-A5001 as
  a predecessor
  -select PH03-A5001 and follow steps above to set PH05-A5018 as a
  predecessor
   The last step should not be allowed as it is circular.
   PH05-A5018 should not be allowed as a predecessor of PH03-A5001
  because PH03-A5001 is already a predecessor of PH05-A5018.
