Bulk update is not working when there is at least one existing Program in the Additional Programs. If that is empty you can update the field.
This is impacting us, we need to add more than 1 additional program to more than 8000 records.
We need a fix for this.
Example:
Capability "CAP01" has:
Primary Program: PR1
Additional Programs: PR2, PR3
(we have 8000 udates to do)
Need:
We want to add the PR4 as well to the Additional Programs.
Method:
Using the import functionality following the guidelines/suggestions from knowledge base.
The addition program in the extract shows: "PR2,PR3".
We change that to: "PR2,PR3,PR4"
Then we run the import using the template.
Results:
Additional Program field is not getting updated. Is not adding the PR4, even if the front end said that a record was updated.
Experiment: Only add the "PR2,PR3,PR4" using the import when the Addition Program field is empty in the Front end. This is the only scenario that works. But if somethin exist there, wont update the value.
