This document contains the release notes for IBM® Lotus® Workplace for Business Controls and Reporting, Version 2. The release notes describe workarounds for known defects and provide supplemental information on topics that might also be covered in the Lotus Workplace for Business Controls and Reporting Help.
Refer to the IBM Lotus Workplace for Business Controls and Reporting Administrator's Guide for a list of hardware and software requirements.
See these topics:
To execute the installer on Windows 2000, you must do the following:
Make sure the %WAS_HOME% environment variable is set, as follows:
Type set WAS_HOME on the command line.
If %WAS_HOME% is not set, follow these instructions for seting the environment variable:
The Control Panel window opens.
The System Properties"window opens.
The Environment Variables window opens.
In the New System Variable pop-up,
Run the installer by double-clicking the installWin32.bat script. Do not use install.exe
If you have problems running the installation script directly on a Windows 2000 Advanced Server, see Running the Installer on Windows 2000 Advanced Server.
When attempting to execute the installer on Windows 2000 Advanced Server, you may not be able to run the application directly by double-clicking on win32install.bat. Instead, you may have to run the installer through the "Add/Remove Programs" Windows utility.
Follow these steps:
Start --> Settings --> Control Panel
Add New Programs --> CD or Floppy
The Install Program from....window will open.
The LWBCR install program will start.
After successfully installing the IBM Lotus Workplace for Business Controls and Reporting application using the installer as described in the Administration documentation, follow these additional steps for creating the top level organization unit and owner.
antCaller.bat(sh) createBase
Do not run this command more than once. It is possible to create two top-level organization units without generating an error message. The second top-level organization unit will be useless.
LWBCR version 2 has several Groups defined within Content Manager. This section describes the use and purpose of each group.
This group contain the users who are acting as auditors.
This group contains the users who are authorized to update financial captions.
This group contains the users who are authorized to import external catalogs, either using the command-line catalog import utility to import XML-based catalogs, or using the user interface to import Excel-based catalogs.
This group contains the users who are eligible to take part in the normal operation of the LWBCR application. Users in SOXDefUpdaterGroup can be assigned to be owners or delegates of Business Units, Processes or Controls.
This group contains the users who should have read access to absolutely everything in the system.
As an example, here are some typical types of users, and the groups they should be assigned to.
Normal users should only be assigned to the SOXDefUpdaterGroup. These users are eligible to be assigned ownership or delegate rights to Business Units, Processes or Controls.
Auditors should be given read access to everything in the system; thus, they need to be added to the SOXUnivReadGroup. They also need to be allowed to update Auditor Observations; thus, they need to be added to the SOXAuditorGroup.
The users who are responsible for updating the financial captions must be in the SOXCaptionUpdaterGroup. If the user should not be eligible to own or have delegate authority to Business Units, Processes or Controls, then the user should NOT be added to the SOXDefUpdaterGroup. If the user should be eligible for such authority, then the user should be added to the SOXDefUpdaterGroup.
Users who have the authority to add new catalogs to LWBCR need to be assigned to both the SOXCatImportGroup and the SOXDefUpdaterGroup.
Finally, here are some of the symptoms of users NOT being assigned to the different groups:
This procedure should replace the procedure in the administration documentation entitled "Adding LDAP users to Content Manager. (SPR: LBOS5ZEU62)
The change is in step 9: The Grant privilege set field should be set to NoPrivs.
Important: Do not add ICMADMIN or ICMCONT to any of these groups.
This is a standalone utility that will create a new group and ACL called SOXCatImportGroup and SOXCatImportACL. The "SOsystem" itemtype is updated with itemtype level ACL "SOXCatImportACL". The members of this group can create catalog of items from an XML document and Excel spreadsheet.
The catalog importer utility should be run as a standalone utility, or as part of a suite of LWBCR V2 utilities used to create a catalog of items.
The catalog importer utility should run with the following parameters:
To run the utility, follow these steps.
java com.ibm.cmsol.CreateSOXCatImportSec <database> <admin_userid> <admin_password>
Follow these steps to import a catalog.
Issue the following command:
set classpath=%CLASSPATH%;<LWBCR_INST>\lib\cmsol.jar.
importCatalog.bat <ICMDB> <ICMADMIN> <PASSWORD> <CATALOG> <RESULT>
Where:
<ICMDB> is the Content Manager Database name
<ICMADMIN> is the Content Manager Administrator username
<PASSWORD> is the Content Manager administrator password
<CATALOG> is the location of the catalog to be imported (Ex: C:\Program Files\LWBCR\Catalog\[filename.xml])
<RESULT> is the location of the file to contain the results of the import (Ex: C:\Program Files\LWBCR\Catalog\[resultfile.xml])
When setting up 'wires' for the portlets, you can get the Portlet Wiring Tool from the following site:
https://www-3.ibm.com/services/cwi/portal/.cmd/ActionDispatcher/_pagr/105/_pa.105/112/.st/X/.piid/139/.ciid/170/PC_139_NAVCODE/1WP10004E
As part of the upgrade to Lotus Workplace for Business Controls and Reporting V2, the stored procedures must be upgraded on the CM library server.
Follow these steps.
UpdReps.bat < db_alias > < userid > < password > < db_schema >
Where:
This .bat file will create the language tables and load data into these tables for multilingual support.
It will then recreate all the DB2 Stored Procedures that are the reports.
If you have already installed LWBCR V2 in English and are now upgrading to a language other than English, follow these steps.
db2 connect to <DB_NAME> user <USER_ID> using <PASSWORD>
create_lang.bat (or create_lang.ksh)
Note: <DB_NAME> is usually ICMNLSDB; <USER_ID> is usually ICMAMDIN.
Since the documentation for archiving was finalized, further information has become available. This information has to do with the following topics:
Encryption of archive files has not been implemented in the current release of IBM Lotus Workplace for Business Controls and Reporting. References to encryption and decryption in the Archiving section of the Administrator's Info Center do not apply.
The -publicKey parameter in the Content Manager command line should be omitted.
Some of the command line parameters documented in the archiving documentation for the Administrator's Info Center no longer apply. If included in the command line, they may generate error messages.
The following command line parameters should not be used:
-maxBufSize
-maxFileSize
-publicKey
Follow these steps to switch between the production and archive databases.
Follow these steps.
Users logging on to the LWBCR database will now see the archive. The archive database is read-only.
To change back to the production database, repeat these steps, entering the name of the production database in Step 5. Note that the alias remains the same for both the production and archive database.
Follow these steps on the Content Manager Server.
db2set DB2_SQLROUTINE_COMPILER_PATH=<location of vcvars32.bat>
Where <location of vcvars32.bat> is the path to vcvars32.bat, typically "c:\Micros~1\vc98\bin\vcvars32.bat" for C++ V6 or "c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET\Common7\Tools\vsvars32.bat" for C++ V7
InstReps <db_alias> <userid> <password> <db_schema>
Where:
The following features were added:
None
An entry field for description has been added to Organization Units and Processes.
None
A new report, User Management, is available. It lists users by group, role, and area:
The following notes identify known problems and limitations in the IBM Lotus Workplace for Business Controls and Reporting.
ZNJN5ZE9EA
Creation of the top level Business Unit will proceed to the end and report success, even if creation of the top level fails.
None
ZNJN5YAGTT
In the Setup tab, if you click Edit Setup and change the End Date or Close Date, the new date appears correctly. If you click Edit Setup again, the date reverts to the previous date.
The revised date is saved to the server; this is a display problem. You can log off and log back on to refresh the display.
ZNJN5XABRX
Users who log on to Lotus Workplace Business Controls and Reporting receive a confusing error message ("Unable to complete operation") if they do not have rights to access the Content Management data.
None. The portal administrator should make sure that the correct users and groups have access.
JSCA5X4N78
As delivered, the portlet header titles are generic. They can be customized for specific uses in LWBCR. Following are some suggestions.
The on-line documentation indicates that these titles may be further expanded programmatically to include, for instance, the type of list (My business units) or the name of the item (Current processes; Controls for current subprocess). This programmatic feature has not been implemented in the current version.
AKAV5SLFNY
A second risk is added with the same name.
Delete the second risk.
AKAV5SLGU6
In Add Objective, if you enter an empty name or a name consisting only of spaces, you cannot access this objective through the list of objectives in order to see its risks. There is no validation to prevent empty names.
Do not create objectives with empty names or names with only spaces.
KBAN5VZG2J
It is possible to delete yourself as an owner or delegate, without receiving a warning or confirmation prompt.
None
YCYC5Z5JGW
Under some circumstances, a new business unit name will be lost. One scenario:
The new business unit name does not appear in the Children List portlet or in the Tree Control portlet. The new business unit name does appear in the Flat List portlet. If you click on the business unit, however, it displays in the Item Detail portlet as "More items" under the root business unit..
Coordinate changes to any "root" object -- which is to say, any object that can have children -- such that no one is editing the "root" while children are being added, deleted, or updated, as data can be "orphaned." This is a limitation in how Content Management updates on-disk data. A good way to guard against this problem is to restrict the number of delegates for any one object. Do not share IDs.
AKAV5SRDJZ
A duplicate of the business unit is created every time you reload the browser.
Delete the extra business unit.
ZNJN5ZDG75, KBAN5ZAB3S
If you create two elements (business units, processes, subprocesses, risks, controls, captions, etc.) with the same name, they will appear as a single element in the Reports tab. Sub-elements for elements of the same name will all appear together under the single element.
Do not create elements with the same name.
AKAV5SRH4U
A duplicate of the process is created every time you reload the browser.
Delete the extra process.
VFEG5SLR5P
On the Documentation tab, it is possible for more than one owner or delegate be logged on at one time and to link risks to the same objective.
When this happens, the last user's links are saved and the previous links are lost.
Do not allow more than one owner or delegate to work on objective associations at the same time.
JEHG5WZ9KF
It is possible to import an XML-format catalog more than once from the command line window. No error message is generated, and the catalog shows up more than once in the Setup tab.
None; be careful to import XML-format catalogs only once.
FBAY5XCMD9
In a new installation, the CM server should be set up for Unicode. The installation screens contain a prompt to enable Unicode by selecting a check box; the default is a cleared check box.
In an existing installation, a new library server database must be created with Unicode enabled, and then the data migrated into it. There is a shortcut in the Content Manager program group to create a new library server database; that shortcut launches a script that prompts the user for information about the database. One of the prompts is for Unicode.
Once the new database has been created, refer to the CM documenation for instructions on migrating data.
There is also a DB2 environment variable that must be set to ensure proper UTF-8 (Unicode) data conversions: From a DB2 Command Window, execute the command db2set DB2CODEPAGE=1208. Then either reboot the machine, or stop and restart the DB2 services.
None
KBAN5YFHFM, KBAN5YGAF5, BHYI5YFFL9, and others
The Unicode Driver is needed for the AIX installation of Crystal Reports.
Use the "DB2 Unicode Driver" for Crystal on AIX. You can get the driver from:
http://www.businessobjects.com/products/downloadcenter/
The file name is: installnewdriversv10aix_en.tar.gz, it is DB2 unicode driver for Crystal 10.
AKAV5STJ5K, SSHT5W4RQS
Using the characters " & < > in entity tags (i.e., names of organization units, business processes, subprocesses, objectives, risks, controls, or test steps; or other fields) can make the entity not appear in subsequent lists, not be editable, or generate a confusing error message. There is no character validation on the input fields.
Using the characters " & < > in captions or subcaptions in financial pages can corrupt the screen display or create editing errors.
Do not use the characters " & < > in entity tags, captions, or subcaptions.
None
The Description field has a limit of 1024 characters. Other fields into which the user can type are limited to 254 or 512 characters.
None
KBAN5ZARWK
Nearly all the input fields are required, but the error message that appears when one is omitted does not specify the empty field.
Since nearly all fields are required, it is more useful to identify the fields that are optional:
Organization Unit
Process
Subprocess
Objective
Risk
Control
Procedure
ZNJN5XTJQF
When the Item detail portlet enters Edit mode, or when the Children List portlet enters Add mode or Attachment Edit mode, the Tree Control portlet (Navigator) or an associated Children List portlet remains active. If you click outside the portlet in which you are adding or editing data, you may lose your edits and have to start over.
Save your additions or edits before leaving the portlet in which you are adding or editing data.
XYXU5WR4K5, XYXU5WR49J, BHYI5WHGBC, XYXU5WJV7Q
When you are adding data in an Item Detail Portlet, if you do any of the following, the information you have entered is lost and must be re-entered.
In addition, if you collapse the ancestor (the level above the parent) of the item to which you are adding, the Add mode in the Item Detail Portlet is lost, and you must click the Add button again.
Save the data in the Item Detail Portlet before using the Tree Control Portlet or maximizing the Item Detail Portlet. Do not click Add a second time if you have not saved your edits.
ZNJN5Y4B2V
If you select an item while editing a subprocess, select a different tab, and then return to the original tab, your original selection will be lost. This is a known problem with "Select Statement" in a subprocess but may also be a problem elsewhere.
Finish editing and save any element before navigating away from it.
ZNJN5X6AHU
When you add a new control catalog through the user interface, the catalog does not appear in the Control Catalog table.
Log off and then log on again to refresh the Control Catalog table.
SRON5W4PCG
In the Help for "Items for the Current Selection" on the Evaluation tab, the section "Selecting procedures for control evaluation" should be deleted. The "For Control Evaluation" check boxes no longer appear next to procedures on the Evaluation tab.
None
None
There is an error in the Help for "Items for the Current Selection" on the Evaluation tab. In the section "Adding a procedure" the references to Add objective and Add risk buttons should be removed.
None
HDLO5ZCBDM
In the calendar display for Next Evaluation Date, the buttons for displaying the previous or next month are missing.
Roll the mouse pointer over the blank area to the left of the month. The buttons will appear.
HDLO5ZCBVM
On the Evaltuation tab, if you open a control and click Control Evaluation, the Next Evaluation Date should default to a date based on Frequency and today's date. The date, however, is blank.
None
MMDN5X7BMR
On the Reports tab, when a business unit is selected and Choose Report button is clicked to show reports, the Save as File button will save the report once. A second Save as File has no effect.
None. Exiting the Reports tab and re-selecting it may allow saving a report a second time.
BHYI5YEEPR
On the Reports tab, the Linking Matrix report does not wrap long category or caption names within the cells of the matrix.
None.
KBAN5ZABGB
In the Reports tab, if you select the Linking Matrix report, the Assertions column may have no data.
None. The data appear if you switch the browser to US English.
HDLO5XEBEX
When adding business units and processes on the Documentation page, the items display in the Navigator in the order in which they were entered; they are not sorted hierarchically by business unit and process.
Collapse and expand the parent business unit in the Navigator; this will sort the items under the parent business unit.
HDLO5XE3TR
When an item in Chinese or Japanese is added, it displays correctly in the Item Detail portlet and in the Children List portlet, but not in the Tree Control portlet (Navigator).
Collapse and expand the nearest parent of the incorrectly displayed items in the Navigator.
KBAN5YBFM2
The links created for some long names for business units in Chinese are not live links. When you click on them, nothing happens. The names are within the byte-count limits, and the problem may have to do with the length of the URL that is created.
None
KBAN5YDACU, XXHU5YE9BM, XXHU5YE9H7
Some Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, and Japanese characters do not display correctly when they are not displayed in their own locales. The characters may display as garbage, or they may display as HTML entities.
None
HDLO5YUADV
In some languages, the entries in the Control Matrix on the Reports tab may overlap.
Install the "MS Arial Unicode" font. This should be the same font you install on your Portal and Crystal server. This font is not supplied by IBM due to licensing issues. Customers can get this from MS Office or other sources as appropriate. It should be installed in the usual fonts directory, typically C:\Winnt\Fonts.
YCYC5XGGNH, YCYC5XGGBS, HDLO5XJCEE, MMDN5WX2G5
Various anomalies appear in the Navigator (the Tree Control portlet) when (1) searching for items in a Child portlet or Flat List portlet or (2) navigating to items in the My Lists (Flat List) portlet. These include duplication of entries and entries appearing at the wrong hierarchical level.
Collapse and expand the nearest parent of the incorrectly displayed items in the Navigator.
DSTR5XHFUV, MMDN5YWCWL, MMDN5YWDBD, MMDN5YWDCQ, MMDN5YWDDP, MMDN5YWDES, MMDN5YWDFM, MMDN5YWDGK
Items in the Navigator (the Tree Control portlet) may not refresh when deleted on another tab. The items are also not refreshed in the Children List portlet.
Example 1: If you create a new business unit on the Organization tab, the new business unit is listed correctly in the Tree Control portlet (Navigator) of both the Organization tab and the Documentation tab. However, if you delete the business unit under the Organization tab and click on the Documentation tab, the deleted business unit still appears in the Tree Control portlet for the Documentation tab.
Example 2: If you create a new process on the Documentation tab, go to the Organization tab and delete this new process in the Item Detail portlet, and go back to the Documentation tab, and click on the process in the Tree Control portlet, the process still appears in the Children List portlet.
This is a display refresh problem. Collapse and expand the Navigator and the deleted item no longer appears.
ZHTI5ZMCMF
If you import or add an item (a process, for example) to a business unit, the item may not appear in the Tree View portlet or the Children List portlet.
Collapse and expand the parent business unit node in the Tree View to refresh the portlets.
YCYC5ZLEZR
If you delete a risk and then recreate it, the risk appears in the Tree List portlet but not in the Children List portlet. This problem may exist for other elements as well.
This is a display refresh problem. Click on the risk and its objective in the Tree List portlet and the Children List portlet will refresh to show the newly added risk.
KBAN5Z3D5M
In the Flat List portlet (My Lists), the information table under the tabs may be incomplete. My Processes may not display the Documentation Completed column. My Controls may not display the Type column.
This is a display problem; the data are not missing. Click another tab, such as the Search tab, and return to My Processes or My Controls. The missing column will display correctly.
DWAG5ZBAYW
If you click the Add Subprocess button on the Organization tab, the Item Detail portlet may show some captions not wrapping correctly within their space. Subcaptions may not be properly indented.
None
YCYC5Z6G5T
If you click on a Flat List item immediately after clicking a tab, the Tree Control portlet displays the corresponding information only for the item you chose in the Flat List.
This is a display refresh problem. Collapse and expand the tree to display its entire contents,
KBAN5WL2FC
Searches done in LWBCR are case-sensitive.
None. The case-sensitivity is a limitation of Content Management. If searches give unexpected results, make them case-sensitive.
XXHU5WNBRD
In the My Lists (flat list) portlet, the search function does not support wild cards such as * or ?, or operators such as + or -.
None
KBAN5XEHD3
When one or more controls are added or removed, the Executive view should show the number added or removed. If the CM server and the portal server do not have the same time and date, however, the number of controls added or removed is reported as zero.
There may also be a problem in how DB2 stores the time stamp.
Make sure the CM server and portal server are set for the same time and date.
KBAN5XY5ED
In the Executive view, it is possible for the root business unit to indicate zero for Controls Not Tested, Past Due, or Next 30 Days. If you click on a zero (which is a link), the data for a child business unit is shown.
None.
JHUG5XGP3L
Reports that depend on time stamps will not work properly if the CM server and the portal server have different times and/or are in different time zones. Control creation dates are saved on the CM server as GMT; test dates are saved on the portal server in local time.
None. Make sure the CM server and portal server are set to the same time and date.
YCYC5ZENPR
Manually inputted controls that are neither evaluated nor observed do not show up in a Coso Control Components report. Imported controls that are neither evaluated nor observed do show up in a Coso Control Report.
None
ZNJN5YUBW8
Dates entered with the calendar tool do not display in the language chosen for the browser. This problem has been noticed for Chinese and Japanese in the Auditor Observation on the Evaluation tab. It may occur elsewhere.
None
AKAV5TDCDM
With an item in Edit mode, the Delete button should be disabled or not appear. However, the Delete button still appears and can be clicked.
If you click the Delete button, a message displays telling you to finish editing the item.
DHAS5UHKSQ
When you delete an attachment for a subprocess, a warning message is displayed warning you that subordinate items will also be deleted. There are no subordinate items for attachments.
None; click OK to delete the attachment.
BHYI5WZETS
The icon displayed on the Show Audit Trail button is incorrect.
None; the button works correctly.
BHYI5WZFZJ
The icons for some action buttons do not display. These may include Auditor Observation, Control Evaluation, Control Observation, Save as File, and Up.
None; the button labels are correct and the buttons function properly.
BHYI5X2DEV
Icons for some action buttons are incorrect in the Item Detail Portlet of the Control tab. These may include Control Evaluation, Control Observation, Auditor Observation, and Show Audit Trail.
None; the button labels are correct and the buttons function properly.
YCYC5Y9GDS
Users who are logged on as auditors should not be able to edit or delete items in financial documents. In the lists of financial documents, however, icons for Edit and Delete appear.
None
BHYI5XEGK6
When a child object is deleted and the Show Audit Trail button is clicked, the child name should appear as the Item Name. The parent name displays instead.
None
HDLO5ZCDH8
If you associate some captions to a subprocess, view the audit trail, and then associate an additional caption, the audit trail for the first set of associations is duplicated.
None
YCYC5XHJ8Q, YCYC5XHJRC, YCYC5XHMKH
If you delete a caption, any subcaptions for that caption are orphaned. This means that you cannot get to them to see them or delete them. The audit trail shows only the deletion of the caption and not the subcaptions.
In a balance sheet, the same problem exists for captions and subcaptions when a category is deleted. The captions and subcaptions for the category are orphaned and cannot then be deleted. They do not appear in the audit trail.
Delete the items from the lowest level and work backward through the levels. If you delete in this manner, nothing is orphaned and all deletions show in the audit trail.
YCYC5XJNTT, YCYC5XJP56, YCYC5XJPBY, MMDN5YFAEF
In all cases the children are orphaned and cannot be displayed or deleted.
Delete the items starting at the lowest level and work backward through the levels.
KBAN5XS3QZ
When you delete attachments for a subprocess, the audit trail does not show the deletions.
None
YCYC5XJQDR, YCYC5XJQLQ
In the audit trail display, a risk associated with an objective, or an objective associated with a risk, may not display the Show Audit Trail button to expand their information.
None.
XYXU5YG629
After you import an Excel file, the import action appears in the audit trail as meaningless text and numbers.
None.
KBAN5ZBDN4
If you import an Excel file with invalid values for some cells, the invalid values are replaced by default values after importing. The file is imported and "Import Successful" displays. There is no error message.
None
YCYC5ZLJ9A
Excel 2002 has an auto-complete feature that may prompt for a process name that already exists. After entering a process name and then moving to a new line, if the user enters the same first letter of the process above, Excel will offer the entire process name from the cell above. If the user presses Enter, there will be two identical process names in the two cells.
Fully enter the information in each cell and do not accept any prompted text, or use a version of Excel other than 2002.
YCYC5XEDN4
The audit history may contain some information that users don't expect to see. This is because in some cases, data elements are used for purposes that don't exactly match their names.
For example, the audit history for Procedures include information about the SOdescription field, but the contents of that field in the audit history are either the words "Not tested" or are dates. This is because the SOdescription field for Procedures describes when the procedures were logged as being tested, rather than describing the procedures themselves.
Also, the audit history for financial captions may include fields that do not appear in the user interface. This is because the same type of information is stored for both captions and subcaptions -- it is simply that more information is currently filled in for subcaptions than for captions.
None.
ZNJN5YWA98
Non-variable information in audit trails is not translated and appears only in English.
None
YCYC5XFJ92
In the list of procedures for evaluating a control, the completion date displays as "Not tested" if the procedure has not been completed.
None.
None
Some error message strings were added to cat.properties after the translation deadline.
cat.catalogimport.truncateddata=Data truncated at 512 characters:
cat.catalogimport.invaliddata=Value does not match valid values on sheet:
None
HDLO5YYD6D
Reports for Corporate Structure, Documentation Status, Control Matrix, Ineffective Controls, Observations and Recommendations, Evaluation of Controls, and User Management are translated into Chinese (zh) but not Simplified Chinese (zh_cn).
Switch to the zh locale.
None
When creating spreadsheet catalog data for import into Business Controls and Reporting, an item name cannot exceed the maximum length of 512 characters.
When a spreadsheet is imported and names exceed 512 are found, they will be truncated to 512 and a warning will be shown to the user at the end of the process.
Shorten spreadsheet names before importing.
XYXU5YJK39, XYXU5YJK6Y, XYXU5YJL2T, XYXU5YJL72, XYXU5YJL7X, XYXU5YJL8R, XYXU5YJJY6, XYXU5YJJWC, XYXU5YJJKZ, XYXU5YJJHC, XYXU5YJHTM, XYXU5YJHPU, XYXU5YJHZB, XYXU5YJJV7, XYXU5YJHJG, XYXU5YJHMS
Certain entries have length limits. If the limits are exceeded, there is no error message and data may be lost.
Observe the following limits:
Evaluation tab
Setup tab
Attachments
ZNJN5XTA8M
If you attach a document with a semicolon in its file name, the subsequent display of the file name will be cut off at the semicolon.
None. If possible, rename the file and omit the semicolon from the file name before attaching the file.
HDLO5YJDDT
If you create an attachment for a procedure, but do not provide a name, the attachment title displays as code for a non-breaking space.
Provide a name for the attachment.
KBAN5X7CR3
Excek files imported through the user interface appear in the Control Catalogs list with the Active Catalogs check box selected by default. XML files imported through the XML tools in the Portal server appear in the Control Catalogs list with the Active Catalogs check box cleared by default.
None; the check boxes should be selected or cleared manually.
ZNJN5XT6U6
When using the Attached files and URLs tab for a subprocess, if you right-click on an attached file and select Save target as, the dialog box does not transfer the name of the file to the Save As dialog box. If you attempt to save the file and then open it, it is not the file you saved.
Click on the attached file to open it. A new window will open with the file's contents. You can then save it the file from the new window.
ZNJN5XTDYD
When you click on an executable file attachment for a subprocess, a dialog box displays with the option to open or save the attachment.
If you open the attachment, it displays as a text file.
If you save the attachment, it is saved by default as a text file with a .txt extension.
Change the file name in the Save As dialog box to include the .exe extension. The file will be saved as an executable, an it can then be executed from its saved location.
KBAN5Y395K
If you click on an attachment to open it, and it does not exist or is a text file with no contents, a new Lotus Workplace for Business Controls and Reporting window opens.
An attachment may not exist because it has been deleted or because it was saved with incorrect path or file name information.
If the attachment is a file you know to exist, delete the existing attachment and reattach the file using the correct path and file name.
XXHU5XSBNK
When a report is saved as a PDF file, some information may be truncated. This has happened in the title of a Process Objective.
None
AJEY5X5Q5U
The Archive application may detect a serious error that prevents the import or export from continuing. Under some conditions, the application does not return control to the Command Prompt after issuing a terminating error message to the console.
Enter Ctrl+C to terminate the application.
ZNJN5Z7CQ9
After completion of a quarterly archive operation, the completion message indicates that you have performed an annual archive, along with the correct number of the quarter.
None
ZNJN5YEEPF
When you are viewing an archive database, the following tabs do not function: My Business Units, My Processes, and My Controls.
None. These tabs should not be operational in the archive database. There may be some confusion, however, because they are not dimmed to indicate that they are not selectable.
