Action Name with Single Quote Fails

Metastorm

The information in this article applies to:

Product: Metastorm BPM (e-Work)
Version: 6.6.x 7.x

Issue

• If the name of an action, other than the initial action, contains an apostrophe (single quote), it causes the following behavior in the browser client. The Outlook client is not affected.

  1. When the folder is opened at a stage that has the action available, a pop-up message appears with the error Expected ')'.
  2. After the pop-up is closed, the form is displayed with the action shown. However, nothing happens when the action is clicked.

Resolution

• This is a known issue.
