Clicking the Drop-Down Arrow Next to the Health Status Indicator Does Not Open the Drop-Down Menu

When you change the spec health status on the Compliance view, clicking the drop-down arrow next to the health status indicator displays the drill-down page, instead of the drop-down menu that contains the Change Health and View Change History options.

Workaround:

This error occurs randomly. Use the following methods to solve this:
  • Refresh the web page in your browser.
  • Go to a different view in Specification Compliance Manager and then go back to the Compliance view.

The Cpk Value is Not Bold when Clicking Refresh after the Compliance Calculation

If there is a change to a spec after the compliance calculation, the entire spec row is boldfaced except the Cpk value.

Workaround:

If there is a change to a spec and its compliance values, the spec row is boldfaced. You can infer whether the Cpk value is affected based on other columns in the same row.

The User-Defined Statistics Columns Are Highlighted after Overriding Health

When the spec health status is Failed or Warning due to user-defined statistics failure or warning, you can override the health status to Passed if reasonable. Although the spec health is Passed after overriding, the failure or warning icon still exists in the user-defined statistics columns. This behavior appears on the Compliance view and in the downloaded compliance report with the default XLSX format.

Workaround:

There is currently no known workaround for this issue.

When the Specification File Is Updated, Some Specs Are Shown as Changed Even if There Are No Changes

The leading or trailing spaces in the spec file column names are automatically ignored when the spec file is uploaded for the first time. But if the spec file is uploaded again, the leading or trailing spaces are identified as updates and there are messages showing the specs are changed.

Workaround:

There is currently no known workaround for this issue. You can ignore the spec change notifications and continue to upload the spec file. Because the specs are not updated, the uploading process thereafter is seamless.

On the Spec and Compliance View, the Setting of Showing the Autohidden or Empty Columns Is Not Retained

On the Spec and Compliance view, updating the hidden status of the autohidden or empty columns via the Show/Hide Columns menu is not retained after you switch the categories, web pages, or login status. This occurs for only the columns with empty values for all specs.

Workaround:

If you want to retain the setting of showing an empty column, ensure that you make any other visible columns hidden when making an empty column visible.

On the Compliance View, Green Background Color Remains in the Table Even after the Spec Row Checkbox Is Cleared

On the Compliance view, if you select a spec row checkbox, the background color of the spec row changes to green indicating that the spec is focused. You can change the green color to a different row by selecting another spec, but you cannot remove the green color from the table by clearing the checkbox or clicking outside the table. After a spec is focused, there is always at least one row highlighted green in the table. 

Workaround:

To remove the green color from the table, you can go to a different view and then go back to the Compliance view.

Messages for the Warning Health Status Do Not Explain the Exact Reason if Notebook-Level Errors Occurred

The spec health status changes from Passed to Warning if there are any notebook-level errors during the user-defined statistics calculation. In this case, the tooltip of the warning icon doesn't explicitly explain the reason.

Workaround:

When there are notebook-level errors, a banner appears at the top of the Compliance view to indicate that errors occurred in compliance calculation. You can infer from the banner that the notebook-level error is the reason for the warning health status.
