Symptoms

Original object description (F9860.XML SIMD) is not retained when an object is restored from a PAR file.

For example, save a checked in object to a PAR file, and subsequently change the object description. When the PAR file is restored, the original description (F9860.XML SIMD) is not retained. Comparatively, if the object is not checked in prior to saving the object to a PAR file, and subsequently the description is changed, the original description (F9860.XML SIMD) is retained when the PAR file is restored.
