The BI Workbench Entry Edition v4.2.4 - Fix Pack3 requires a previous installation of the full version of WBI Workbench 4.2.4 Entry Edition.

New Updates:

• The User name of an employee can include a dash "-" character.

• The Organization file name length can be up to 80 bytes.

• The Currencies data cannot be imported now using the Import Data feature.

• The Entry Point text box, in the Applications dialog box, is validated to hold a maximum of 32 bytes.

• The decimal precision for currencies exchange rate can be up to seven decimal places.

• The Task name can be up to 235 bytes.

• The Process name can be up to 235 bytes.

• The External Process name (in the E-Commerce editing mode) can be up to 235 bytes.

• When using BI Workbench Entry Edition on a system locale that is not supported, the organization is opened as read only.

• The exported Simulation results can include now up to 32,000 jobs instead 16,300 jobs by using a new enhanced exporting tool.

• The Time Between Jobs option in the Simulation Setup dialog box is now validated so that it does not exceed one year.

Fixed bugs:

• APAR JR18626: All string variables are now initialized prior to the export of data to MS Excel.
• APAR JR18653: Fixed the bug that occurred on Process expansion; when a search for the inputs and outputs for every sub-process (recursively) takes place to identify the proper connections between objects in the main (High Level) process, and those in the child process.  In some specific cases these calculations went wrong, leading to an application crash.
• APAR JR18764: Fixed the bug that caused removing all processes Notes from a process, when this process has been created by using the Save Process As command, and the original Process has been deleted, and no further save occurred prior to the close of BI Workbench.
• APAR JR18932: Fixed the bug that causes the Printed Process Diagram Layout (Portrait / Landscape) different from the selected layout in Print setup.
• APAR JR19170: Fixed the bug that generates smaller number of jobs in simulation if a follow decision is used in a Sub-Process and the time between jobs is greater than the process time. In addition, updated the documentation help topic entitled "Defining a Binary Decision Object" regarding the selection of the Follow check box in a Decision object dialog box.
• APAR JR19171: Fixed the bug that causes incorrect Process Cycle time if the start date and time of any task in this process falls during the time between shifts based on the used Calendar.

• APAR JR19173: Fixed the bug that causes a crash in BI Workbench Entry Edition when opening a Process that has been checked out from IBM WebSphere Business Integration (BI) Workbench Server^TM .

• APAR JR19247: Fixed the bug in BI Workbench Entry Edition on Windows NT that causes the month and year not to appear on the yellow caption in the Calendar dialog box.
• APAR JR19311: Fixed the bug that caused the value of Total Duration in the simulation Activities table to be less than the Working Duration for the same task.
• APAR JR19406: Fixed the bug that causes the simulation of a large process not to complete successfully when the number of simulation jobs is more than 5000 jobs and the time between jobs is less than 10 seconds.
• APAR JR19466: Fixed the bug that causes an error message to appear when searching for an object in a process containing more that 256 sub-processes, using the Search feature from the Administrative Functions.
• APAR JR19470: The dot character '.' is not accepted now in the organization name or in the path in which the organization file will be saved.
• APAR JR19550 Fixed the bug that causes simulation to hang when a task uses a calendar that has no break between shifts.
• APAR JR19556 Fixed the bug that causes BI Workbench Entry Edition to crash when copying the entire process of the Fmccred sample organization, and attempting to paste it in a new process diagram by using the Paste Special feature.
• APAR JR19593 Fixed the bug that causes From text box in the Calendar dialog box to give time format error when the time is set to 00:00:00 AM.
• APAR JR19674 Fixed the bug that displays invalid date format when the preferences date format is yy/mm/dd.
• APAR JR19757 Fixed the bug that returns back the text deleted from the Annotation object.
• APAR JR19758 Fixed the hang that occurs in BI Workbench Entry Edition while opening recursive processes.
• APAR JR19759 Adjusted the drop-down lists sizes to match the size of displayed text.
• APAR JR19803 Fixed the bug that causes a multiple-state phi to be imported as a single state phi, when being imported using the Import Processes feature.
• APAR JR19886 Fixed the bug that causes Simulation results for Jobs not to be properly displayed, in Windows XP with Service Pack 1, when the selected display mode is Windows XP Style.
• APAR JR19947 Fixed the bug that caused multiple lines of Task notes to appear as a single line in the Procedure Steps table in the Procedure report.
• APAR JR19990 Fixed the bug that caused the vertical scroll bar not to appear in the Binary or Multiple Decision object dialog box.

• APAR JR20063    1- Fixed the bug that caused the BI Workbench Entry Edition not to import the entire CSV file, if the any of the file data includes special characters, such as è, ò, é, ë.  2- Fixed the bug that caused BI Workbench Entry Edition to crash while importing Employees file to an organization that contains huge number of roles.

• APAR JR20104 Fixed the bug that caused the BI Workbench Entry Edition 4.2.4 Fix Pack1 HotFix not to be installed on Windows 98.

• APAR JR20116 Fixed the bug that prevented using dots in the Number text box in the Functions dialog box and the Business Rules dialog box.

• APAR JR20376 Fixed the bug that caused BI Workbench Entry Edition to crash on Windows XP SP2.

• APAR JR20385 Fixed the bug that caused the incompletion of some simulation jobs due to the definition of a repetition value for one or more sub-processes.

• PMR 60368,379,000 Explicitly stated in the documentation that the simulation is based on the working duration of the process tasks.

• PMR 81642,999,000 Added to the documentation definitions of R-Blocked Duration, in both the Jobs and Activity simulation tables.
