Additional Information
Workaround :
A dev-build of a JavaAPI for AWI can be requested from Support to bypass the issue.
To apply the workaround:
1. Shutdown AWI
2. Backup the JavaAPI from the AWI in <TOMCAT_ROOT_DIRECTORY>\webapps\awi\WEB-INF\bundle\ae-java-api.jar
3. Replace it with the dev-build JavaAPI
4. Restart AWI
Optional steps if AWI isn't able to restart after the replacement because of a dependency error:
1. Copy the backup of ae-java-api.jar back into AWI
2. Replace the zipfile-content "com\uc4\api\objects\JobPlanTask.class" from the AWI JavaAPI with "com\uc4\api\objects\JobPlanTask.class" from the dev-build JavaAPI with help of a ZIP program
