What happens if you run your qualification in the Advanced Query bar on
your v7 User tool.  You should get a list of users.

Subject: LIKE qualifications in 7.0



We're in the process of upgrading our AR System Server and Clients from
version 5.1.2 to 7.0.01 and I've run into a bit of a problem.  I was
asked to upgrade my User and Admin tools to 7.0.01 on my PC for testing
purposes, and to draft an implementation plan.  Our server is still
5.1.2 but I was under the impression that the WUT is backwards
compatible and I generally do very little day-to-day work in the WUT
anyway.

 

Anyhow, I upgraded with no problems and was able to login with no
problems.  I did a cursory examination of some workflow and everything
seemed okay.  This morning, I got a request to change the Group of a
user.  I went to the USER form, made the required changes, and clicked a
button to Add them as a System POC and received an error:

 

"Before attempting to add a System POC, their Group List must be set to
System POC or System POC Manager. (ARERR 75001)

 

The preceding message occurred during the execution of active link
USER:Add A New POC -- action 1. (ARNOTE 1101)"

 

The first line is the Message action in the Else action of the above
Active Link.  The problem is, I did in fact change the Group List of the
user to System POC.  I went to the Admin tool and checked the Run If
qualification for that Active Link:

 

( 'Group_List' LIKE (( "%"  +  "System" ) +  "%" )) OR ( 'Group_List'
LIKE (( "%"  +  "Admin" ) +  "%" ))

 

Just to make sure I hadn't screwed up somewhere along the line, I had
one of my coworkers attempt the change on his 5.1.2 WUT and it worked
perfectly.  To make sure it wasn't a backwards compatibility problem, I
tested the workflow on our 7.0.01 dev server and received the same
error.

 

I looked through the Release Notes as well as the "What's new in 7.0.01"
docs and didn't see any issues about LIKE qualifications being
interpreted differently in 7.0.01 versus 5.1.2 and I checked the patch
notes for 7.0.01 just to see if it was a possible bug.  No luck.

 

I asked an old coworker of mine who now works on a 7.1 server if he'd
experienced anything like this, and he mentioned that I could change "%"
+ "System" + "%" to "%System%"

 

That's all well and good, but this is only one active link in a fairly
large beast of an application.  Did something change in the way the WUT
interprets LIKE qualifications?

 

Thanks much,
