IJ16763: VALUES WITH HYPHENS ARE BREAKING THE ITEM NUMBER AND REMARKS COLUMNS IN RECEIVING APP.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• PROBLEM:
  
  When item number and remarks attributes have hyphens, in the
  Receiving application, this has resulted in the "Select Ordered
  Items" dialog box to be difficult to read because the Item,
  Description, and Remarks text are being wrapped inside columns.
  
  Increasing the width of the Ordered Items table in Application
  Designer and setting the widths of the
  selorditems_selorditems_table and dataattribute elements in the
  receipts.xml file  have not affected the way the dialog box
  displays.
  
  
  PERFORMANCE ISSUE: No.
  
  STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
  
  1. Create a PO and add a POLINE
  2. Enter an Item with hyphens in the item name and in Remarks
  field.
  3. Approve the PO
  4. Go to Receiving app and find the PO
  5. Click "Select Ordered Items"
  6. The remarks field are braking lines.
  The Item Number also breaks with hyphens.
  
  
  CURRENT ERRONEOUS RESULT:
  
  The item number and remarks fields are breaking when there are
  hyphens in the value.
  
  
  EXPECTED RESULT:
  
  The item number and remarks fields should not break when there
  are hyphens in the value.
