Symptoms
On: A9.4 and above
For a branch where the locations are formatted with the first location segment defined as 'Right Justified' and where the location values begin with a blank space, Dream Writer Data Selections within Manufacturing and Distribution that include the 'Location' field, left justifies the location fields LOCN - Location, TLOC - To Location and FLOC - From Location when data selecting on specific locations.
Location settings reside in Branch/Plant Constants (2/G4141) on page 2 (P410012) as follows:
For example, if you have a location '_A001' (first character is blank), when first entered into the data selection of Create Tasks (P46471), the location is displayed with the first character being a blank space as expected. However, upon pressing enter or F5 to update, the value in the location field is left justified which removes the blank space. Instead of having location '_A001', you now see 'A001' (no leading blank space) resulting in this being an invalid location. Because of this, the fields R2FLOC - From Location and R2TLOC - To Location, cannot be used as data selection criteria in a branch with locations defined where the first location segment is Right Justified and the locations have a blank space as the first character.
