DE30789 CLRT-81546: Over/Under Allocation by Resource Report Shows Incorrect Remaining Capacity for Resources with a Project Role

Steps to Reproduce:1. Create two labor resource roles, for example: - RoleProjectPrRole - RoleResourcePrRole

OBS: Resource Pool/All Groups Booking Manager: Roberts, Beth Availability: 8 hours Category: IT

2. Create two labor resources, for example: - ResourceA - ResourceBPrimary Role: RoleResourcePrRoleOBS: Resource Pool/All Groups/Internal/DevelopmentOBS: Department OBS/Corporate/IT/Development Resource Manager: Miller, RosieBooking Manager: Roberts, Beth Availability: 8 hours Category: IT

3. Create a project starting on the current month and finishing by the end of the current month4. Create a task starting and finishing today5. Add ResourceA and ResourceB as team members and assign them to the task previously created (ETC=8)6. Change ResourceB project role to RoleProjectPrRole (Leave ResourceA project role as RoleResourcePrRole)7. From the Project Team tab select both resources and click the Allocate from Estimates action8. Run the Time Slicing, Investment Allocation and Load Data Warehouse jobs9. Navigate to Advanced Reporting and run the 'Over/Under Allocation by Resource' report using the filter options as follows:

Resource Role: RoleProjectPrRole and RoleResourcePrRole Start date: start of current month, Over/Under Allocated: default,Group B: Resource Manager, Include Inactive Resources: checked Include Inactive Investments: checked

10. Note the ResourceB remaining capacity for the current month.11. Run the 'Over/Under Allocation by Resource' report again using the same filter options except for Resource Role

- remove RoleResourcePrRole from the selection.12. Note the ResourceB remaining capacity for the current month.

Expected Result: The report uses the Resource's Primary Role, so it looks at all projects for the resource - the remaining capacity is the sameActual Result: The report uses the Projects Primary Role, so it doesn't look at all projects, it only looks Project where the resource has that Role - the remainingcapacity is higher

DE40892 New User Experience Task Input Type Code and Charge Code Change after Copying previous week timesheet data to current week

In the New User Experience, the Task Input Type Code and Charge Code are unexpected changed after copying the previous week's timesheet data into thecurrent week.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

1) Log into a PPM environment with the New UX and navigate to the new timesheets area2) For the previous time period (i.e. April 16 - April 22), have a submitted timesheet with tasks from at least 3 different project. If not, populate your timesheetwith tasks from at least 2 different projects and submit it.3) Go the current time period (i.e. April 23 - 29) and use the 'Copy previous timesheet (April 16 - April 22)' function and be sure the 'Copy hours' option ischecked on. Hit the 'Create timesheet' button to do so.4) Give each individual task a Input Type Code and Charge Code value so that these are all populated for the tasks5) Delete the last task from the last project you have tasks for in your copied timesheet6) Add that task back using the '+ Work' button (such that you are back to having at least 2 different projects listed on your timesheet)7) Populate the Input Type Code and Charge Code for that added task 8) Delete the Charge Code and/or Input Type Code that you just entered for thatadded task

Expected Results: The Charge Code/Input Type Code should be deleted for just that taskActual Results: The Charge Code/Input Type Code is deleted for that task and from one of the tasks above it

Workaround: Switching from the timesheet of the current period to the one of the previous period, and then back to the current period seems to fix it. Afterthat, modifications on the Input Type Code/Charge Code of one task do not seem to impact the field on other tasks.

DE41665 Unable to write Unicode Plane 0 characters to a Portfolio using XOG WritePfm_portfolio

Using XOG to update portfolios: writing usernames containing Unicode Plane 0 characters (such as ω, Ϧ, ϥ, Φ) to a portfolio as a Stakeholder or a Manageralways fails with the following message in the XOG output file:"One or more values for attribute: [*] on the pfm_portfolio do not exist in the system." (Where * is either 'stakeholder' or 'owner')

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

This problem is reproducible only with MSSQL. There is no problem with using Oracle.

1. XOG using a pre-designed file with valid sample data to help reproduce the issue, for example Portfoliotest.xml2. Check the XOG output and the Stakeholder and Owners fields in the UI.

Expected Results: User name with Unicode characters is successfully added to the Stakeholder and Owner fields. There should be no warning/error in theXOG output file.

Actual Results: Usernames with Unicode characters are not added successfully to the Stakeholder and Owner fields. XOG output contains WARNING message'One or more values for attribute: [owner] on the pfm_portfolio do not exist in the system.'

In addition, the username is not added to the Stakeholder and/or Owner field in the UI. XOG xml file contains:userωϦϥΦuserωϦϥΦ

If a user exists in the system with the username / id 'userωϦϥΦ', I can add this user to the Stakeholders / Managers list on the Portfolio in the UI without anissue. If I then use the ReadPfm_portfolio xog to obtain a record of the Portfolio, the user returns successfully.

DE42040 Benefit Plan Details custom TSV field data do not clear on update of Benefit Plan Start Period

Custom Time Scaled Value (TSV) data does not clear, when the Benefit Plan’s Start Period is moved outside range* Set up a new Time Scaled Value (TSV)Attribute against the Benefit Plan Detail Object. * Create a new Benefit Plan and populate data.* Change Start Date to be after the current Start period.

When we XOG in the Benefit Plan and have the Forecast TSV amounts from Jun 2017 onwards, the XOG fails with an error saying the amount entered isoutside the Benefit Plan Period. Need to manually correct this for every column.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:1) Open Benefit Plan Details Object:• Administration, Objects, Object Name = Benefit Plan Detail• Go to Attributes tab and choose “New” Attribute2) Create a new Time-varying AttributeExample:• Attribute Name - Forecast Benefit• Attribute ID - tls_ben_frc• Data Type - Time-varying• Time-varying Type -Fiscal• Time-varying Data Units - Money• Time-varying Date Constraints - Leave empty for now• Save and Return3) Go to “Views” for the “Benefit Plan Detail” Object• Choose “Fields” against “Benefit Plan Detail - List”• Create a “New” Column Field4) Configure the custom TSV field (Forecast Benefit) in the Project Benefit Plan List View along with the OOTB Benefit and Actual Benefit TSVs.• ValueAttributes - Actual Benefit, Benefit, Forecast Benefit, Variance• Start Date - 1st Jun 2017• Specific Time Scale - Month• Number of Time Periods - 12• ColumnLabel - Benefit Details• Allow Editing - Yes. (NOTE - Need to Save first before this is available.)• Save and Return• Publish Object/Attributes if required5) Go to an existing Project or create a New Project• Home, Portfolio Management, Projects• Create a New Benefit Plan from Finanical Plans, Benefit Plans6) Enter Benefit Plan Property Details• Plan Name - TSV Benefit Plan Test• Plan ID - TSV_01• Period Type - Monthly• Start Period - 1 July 2017• End Period -Far in the future7) Go to the Benefit Plan Details and add a New Plan• Add in any details8) Enter in some test data against the new Benefit Plan• The custom TSV field (Forecast Benefit) and one out-of-the-box field like Benefit are required for thetest• All others are optional9) Return to the Benefit Plan Properties tab and adjust the Start Period from Jul 2017 to Jan 2018 and save the changes.10 ) Return to the Details Tab

Expected result: When the Start Date of the Benefit moves out of the period where data has been entered, the data should be reset to zero. Correct - the Out-of-the-Box values are reset to zero.

Actual: Incorrect - the custom TSV field (Forecast Benefit) is retaining its values, and should not. All of the Benefits that are before the Start period get zeroedout, except for those against the custom TSV fields.Expectation: All fields should be zeroed.

DE42320 Aggregation function change on a non-admin account gets distributed to all accounts except the account that changed it

Aggregation function change on a non-admin account gets distributed to all accounts except the account that changed it.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

1. Create either an object based portlet or a query based portlet2. Display a number column in its layout and create an aggregation against it

a. Assume that we have applied the "count" function against this aggregation3. Login through a non-admin account (Give enough access rights to this account for it to see the portlet created above)4. Access the portlet created above5. Change the aggregation that was defined in step 2 to:

b. Assume that we change it to apply "maximum" function6. Now, clear cache on the server, or restart it. This is required because the DB table responsible for holding aggregation related information is being updatedincorrectly, and that incorrect update will show in the UI only when we flush cache.

Expected Result: "Maximum" function gets applied on the non-admin account's portlet. "Count" function remains applied on all other accounts.Actual Result: "Maximum" function gets applied on admin account's portlet. "Count" function remains on account that did this change.

DE42896 OWB Row Height Changes Revert Back to Default

OWB row height changes revert back while clicking in various areas of the view.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

1. Create a project with tasks with a long name2. Export the project to OWB3. The task name wraps, but the row height does not adjust to fit the entire wrapped text due to DE309204. Manually adjust the height of the first task row5. Then either:

- Click on the number of any row- Click on the name of another task- Click on the cell of the Name column to create a new task- Create a new task and type 'Enter' on the keyboard

Note: The issue is consistently reproducible by clicking on the number of any row or by creating a new task and clicking on 'Enter' on the keyboard. The issueis intermittently reproducible with the other two actions.

Expected Results: The row height that was manually adjusted on the task on Step 4 remains.Actual Results: The row height reverts back to the default height on all tasks. It's difficult and time consuming for users to see the entire task name (or data onany other field that wraps) without making the cell width significantly wider. When the cell width is made wider, this makes it harder for the users to see easilysee all the other columns that they have added to the view. When there are multiple tasks with long names on the project, users have to repeatedly adjust thecell height as it keeps reverting to the default height.

DE42990 Adjusted Timesheet not showing in PPA WIP

Adjustment Timesheet does not post to WIP when financial status is closed when 1st adjustment posts.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:1. Create and financially enable 2 projects- I used RCCL1 and RCCL2- Open for Time Entry - Track Mode PPM2. Add a financially enabled resource- Make sure the resource is in the rate matrix so transactions will post - Open for Time Entry3. Create one task on each project and assign the resource These are the timesheet steps:3. Create a timesheet and add the two tasks from the two projects4. Make sure the Charge Code and Input Type code are populated5. Add hours for a few days on both projects/tasks6. Submit/Approve/Post Timesheet7. Verify in Invalid Transactions8. Post Transactions to Financials (Verify gone from Invalid Transactions)9. Post to WIP - verify transactions are postedAdjust timesheet:10. Adjust one line on the timesheet and remove the hours (zero or blank value) I used RCCL2 project11. Submit and Approve Do not post yet12. Take off time entry and close financials for the project that you removed the hours (RCCL2)- Not sure if Time Entry is relevant but financial status is.13. Post Timesheets14. Check Invalid Transactions - Entries should not be in there as Financial Status is closed.Adjustment timesheet #215. Open the project for time entry. DO NOT Change Financial Status - Remain Closed16. Adjust the timesheet again and add hours back to the project (RCCL2)17. Submit, Approve, Post again18. Check Invalid Transactions - Entries should not be in there as Financial Status is closed.19. Open Financial Status on the Project20. Post Timesheets again

Expected Result: The two adjustments show in invalid transactions so the original timesheet gets creditedActual Result: Only Adjustment #2 is in Invalid Transactions. This causes WIP to have the Original Transactions and the #2 Adjustment transactions with nocredits inflating WIP.

DE43227 Program Budget vs. Forecast by Period Detail Report Variance Issue

Display issue in the Program Budget vs. Forecast by Period Detail Report, where it is unable to display more than 7 characters in the Variance field.

If I create a cost plan against a project under a program with the Cost as a number which is 8 digits long and then I don't create a budget plan for it then thevariance = Budget - Forecast i.e. 0-8 digit number = negative 8 digit number. This value does not display correctly in the variance section on the ProgramBudget vs. Forecast by Period Detail Report. The report displays the variance value only upto the 7th digit and truncates the 8th digit.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

Ensure a transaction class exists in PPMCreate a project in PPM and enable it financially.Create a new manual cost plan on this project with transaction class as the Grouping attributeClick on Detail tab , click on add and add the transaction class say Labour and save.Add some value for cost in the cost plan.Make sure atlease one of these values is more than 7 digits say 12345678 and one of them is 7 digits say 1234567Create a new Program and add the above project as a subproject of the program. Run the LDWH full loadGo to Advanced reporting and run the Program Budget vs. Forecast by Period Detail Report for the program created above.

Expected Results: The Variance should list all 8 digit numbers entered in the cost as there is no budget plan createdActual Results: The 8 digit values display correctly in the Forecast section but in the Variance they are truncated to display only 7 digits. The seven digitnumber is fine both in the cost and in the variance.I also tested with cost as 9 digits and I could see that the forecast also gets truncated to display only 8digits and the variance is further truncated to display only 7.

When exporting a project to MSP, Task Start dates are changing to the Actual Thru date of the assignee, for tasks that don't have any time posted againstthem (not even appearing on the timesheet for a user). The task start date will change to the first working day after the actual thru date for the resource onthe project if the Actual thru date falls on a weekend. This does not happen for tasks that have actuals posted. For tasks with this issue, you can also see inthe Time Scale Task Usage view in MSP, that 0s are entered in the Timescale starting on the Actual Through date through where ETCs first are populated)Additionally, the Actual Start date is generated for these tasks even though there the % Complete is 0, and no actual hours were posted when it is expectedthe Actual Start date shows as 'NA'

1. Create a project in PPM (open for time with track mode PPM)2. Add one resource to the project team (make sure they are open for time and track mode of PPM)3. Create 2 tasks: Task1 (Task Start Date is in the past): Fixed Duration with start date 7/1/2018 and finish date 7/13/2018 Assign resource to task (with 10hours ETC) Task2 (Task Start Date is in the future): Fixed Duration with start date 3/25/2019 and finish date 03/29/2019 Start No Earlier Constraint of3/25/19 Assign resource to task with 5 hours of ETCs during the time frame of 3/25/19 - 3/29/19 (future time period)4. For the user added to the team, submit 8 hours of ETC for task1 with the last hours entered on the time sheet Go to the timesheet for 7/9/18 – 7/15/18 inthe new UX (Past time period)Ensure Assigned Tasks is selected then click Create Timesheet Enter 2 hours of work for 7/10, 7/11, 7/12, and 7/13 ClickSubmit Click Approve Wait 5 minutes then run the Post Timesheets job (Note that the actuals thru date on the Team tab is now 7/15/18)5. Export the project from PPM to MSP6. Observe the start date for task 2

Expected Results: Since the task start date and ETCs are in the future, the task start days stays as 3/25/19Actual Results: The task start date changes to 7/16/18, which is the first working day after the actual thru date for the resource on the project.

Workaround: Change the task type to manually scheduled but then tasks will not auto calculate based on changes to the schedule. Additionally, tasks mustfirst be created originally in auto scheduled mode in MSP to ensure start/finish dates for tasks populate. To use this workaround on impacted tasks:1. Export the project from PPM to MSP2. Highlight all the tasks you want to change to Manually scheduled3. Go to the Task tab in MSP and click the Manually Schedule icon in the menu icon bar4. Correct the date of the task(s) (at this point, the Remaining work is dropped, and task then changes to a milestone)5. Add Remaining Work to the task6. Correct the duration of the task7. Change the Remaining work again to the correct amount

This does not happen for tasks that have actuals posted. For tasks with this issue, you can also see in the Time Scale Task Usage view in MSP, that 0s areentered in the Timescale starting on the Actual Through date through where ETCs first are populated) The Actual Start date is generated for these tasks eventhough there the % Complete is 0, and no actual hours were posted.

Select 'Week' for the Time Scale, and enter 5 for the number of periods12. Click on Save and Return13. On the gantt bar for the assignment, the week of 9/24 is the fourth time period on the Gantt, and there is a bar that fills approximately a third of the weekof 9/24 as expected14. Go to Configure - Gantt, decrease the number of weeks from 5 to 4 (in order to make the week of 9/24 the last week that shows on the gantt)15. Click on Save and Return Note: If the assignment has a start date after Monday, (for example: Start on Tuesday 9/25 and Finish on 9/26) the Gantt barwould just disappear after Step 15.

Expected Results: The gantt bar on the week of 9/24 still covers approximately a third of the period.Actual Results: The gantt bar on the week of 9/24 covers the entire period.

DE44708 Project Allocation Team Audit Trail Last Updated Date is updated, but not Last Updated By

After running time slicing job, the PRTEAM record looks like it was last updated by an inactive user in the Audit Trail

Steps to Reproduce:1. Log in as an active userA2. Make a change to a team member userB allocation through their calendar3. Inactivate userB4. Log in as another active user (User C) and run the Time Slicing job

Actual Results: When a resource calendar is updated, it causes the Time Slicing job to reslice allocation data based on the new resource availabilityThe 'LastUpdated Date' field is updated on the PRTEAM record because the Time Slicing job last processed the allocation data.The Time Slicing job does not updatethe 'Last Updated By' field. Therefore, the user interprets the event as an inactive user changed the record recently.

Expected Results: When the Time Slicing job re-slices the data it should NOT update the 'Last Updated Date' or 'Last Updated By' fields on the PRTEAM recordbecause this is an indirect update to the allocation data.

DE45179 Email for action items

The From Address in our email notifications places the sending user email address (instead of "First_Name Last_Name" or "Last_name, First_Name") in thedisplay name for the From attribute even when the Default Sender address is defined in the CSA. This causes many On Demand customer email systems toreject the emails due to possible spoofing. EXAMPLE FROM THE EMAIL HEADER: FROM: "[email protected]" where [email protected] is the default senderaddress defined in the CSA. On Demand customers must whitelist a large list of servers in order to receive email notifications from PPM because their emailservers are seeing the email address in the display name of the FROM attribute as potential spoofing. Customers are unwilling to take this risk because theemail servers for Microsoft are not dedicated to CA emails. They also service other people/companies that are unknown to them.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

1. Set up a PPM system with email server information and a default sender address so that it can send emails.2. Perform any activity that will generate a notification. For example, adding and removing a participant on a project, sending a report completion notification,submitting a timesheet, or a process manual notification. All perform the same way.

Expected Results: The FROM field will be structured so that "LAST_NAME, FIRST_NAME" or "First_Name Last_Name" in the display portion of the FROM fieldlike most emails. EXAMPLES: "Jones, Martha" "Martha Jones"

Actual Results: The FROM field in the Email Header contains the user email address in the display name portion. EXAMPL
