IJ03926: GRAPHICAL SCHEDULING - NON-INTERRUPTIBLE SUCCESSOR SHOULD BE SCHEDULED AT START OF WORKING TIME, NOT OFFSET.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• In
  this case when the predecessor finishes in non-working
  time, the successor is not scheduled when it should be at the
  start of the next working shift, but rather gets delayed by the
  same number of hours that the predecessor works in the
  non-working time.
  
  If the predecessor works 3 hours in the non-working time, the
  successor does not start when it should at 7am, the shift
  start, but is offset  by those 3 hours and starts at 10am.
  
  STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
  
  1. Create a WO with two tasks. Interruptible
  should not be checked on either task or the WO.
  2. Give Task 10 a duration  of 3 and Task 20 a duration of 4.
  3. Make the first task, 10,  a predecessor of the second task,
  20, with a FS relationship of 0 lag.
  4. On the WO, set the scheduled start to the next Monday at
  7:00 AM and  finish date to that same date at 2:00 PM
  5. Create a Schedule using the DAY calendar, DAY shift, and
  have  Restrict Work To Dates unchecked.
  6. Work Query for the schedule should be for  the WO
  you created in Step 1
  7. Save
  8. Open Gantt View tab.
  9. Using the Gantt, drag Task 10  so that it's Start is 1 hour
  from the end of the working time, 2pm, and its Finish is 2
  hours into the non-working time, at 5pm.
  10. Calculate the schedule dates by clicking the toolbar icon
  labelled Perform Critical Path Method on All Rows.
  
  You will see that Task 10 is scheduled where you placed it,
  with a Start of 2pm and a Finish 3 hours later at 5pm.
  Task 20 has to wait for the start of the next working shift at
  7am but is instead offset 2 hours into the working shift and
  starts at 9am.
  
  This was fixed in some source code already and is referenced by
  RTC request 298057.     That fix needs to get ported into the
  Interim Fixes as requested.
