IJ23795: ISSUES WITH AUTOMATION SCRIPT APPLICATION LONG DESCRIPTION

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Problem Description:
  There are a few issues with the Automation
  Script application in this version of Maximo
  
  1) If you open
  the Long description text area, it has no RTE controls.
  2) The
  Long Description itself is also empty and can't be edited
  3) If
  you move to a second tab in the application and then back to
  thee main tab the Source Code box has disappeared.
  
  STEPS TO
  REPRODUCE:
  
  Got to the Automation script application and get
  any script on screen.
  Click on the long description button, to
  the right of the script's description.
  You will see that the
  enrich text box does not show any of the controls to change the
  color/font/size of the text, and that the long description is
  not displayed (the box is empty).
  Click OK.
  
  Move to any other
  tab of the application (Variables, or Launch Points).
  Go back
  to the main tab (Automation script).
  The source code box is
  gone.
  
  You then need to reload the application to get the
  source code box back. But, you can't still access the script's
  long description.

Local fix

• Import the 7610 application xml as this error was introduced
  by some changes to the miniapp widget.
