Table 6. Resolved Issues

The following issues, which existed in one or more previous versions, have been resolved.

DescriptionTracking ID
Previously, when you attempted to implement the RBI Recommendation to an Inspection Task from the RBI Inspection Plan page, the Desired Interval Basis field was not populated. This issue has been resolved. Now, the Desired Interval Basis field value is populated based on the RBI Recommendation Methodology.DE212588
Previously, the Risk Based Inspection Overview page failed to load sometimes due to a performance issue in the Inspection/TM Updates section. This issue has been resolved. To facilitate this fix, the following query has been enhanced to provide better performance: Public\Meridium\Modules\Risk Based Inspection\Queries\Inspections More Current Than All AnalysisDE212439
Previously, active analyses were not displayed in the RBI tree if they were what-if analyses and the Include What-If filter was not selected. This issue has been resolved. Now, active What-If analyses are displayed in the RBI Tree regardless of the Include What-If filter option selection.DE211551
Previously, the Consequence Evaluation section in the RBI Analysis workspace did not expand correctly after collapsing the section. This issue has been resolved.DE210816
Previously, the Component ID field was erroneously copied when duplicating or applying an RBI Analysis with the Copy Recommendation for Degradation Mechanisms option selected. This issue has been resolved. Now, the Component ID field on the newly created analysis will be set correctly based on the parent RBI Component.DE210293
Previously, sometimes, the Inspection Plan link in the header of the RBI Analysis workspace did not work. This issue has been resolved. Now, the link always directs you to the Inspection Plan workspace.DE210009
