select BCNAME, BCTYPE, BCITEMPARENT, BCITEMNAME, count(*)
from PSBCITEM
where BCNAME = ‘TEST_JOB_DATA_CI’
group by BCNAME, BCTYPE, BCITEMPARENT, BCITEMNAME
having count(*) > 1;

Result was:
BCNAME BCTYPE BCITEMPARENT BCITEMNAME COUNT(*)
TEST_JOB_DATA_CI 4 JOB TERMINATION_DT_1 2

So in my case it looks like the field TERMINATION_DT_1 is duplicating in the PSBCITEM table:

BCITEMNAME SEQUENCE_NBR_6 BCSCROLL RECNAME FIELDNAME SYNCID
TERMINATION_DT_1 403 1 DERIVED_HR_CORE TERMINATION_DT 3752
TERMINATION_DT_1 257 1 JOB TERMINATION_DT 3886

That is, both items have the TERMINATION_DT_1 field occurs twice on the key field BCITEMNAME.

This is also the case when you look at the CI properties in the JOB scroll for the TERMINATION_DT_1 field on the records DERIVED_HR_CORE and JOB.

So, I removed the CI I had created (by exporting to file with delete flag and reimporting), recreated the unique index on PSBCITEM, and performed the “save twice” trick to get it to save the CI.

I queried the PSBCITEM table again, and the TERMINATION_DT_1 returned was the one for the RECNAME, DERIVED_HR_CORE. So for some reason, during the second save, app designer decides to drop the TERMINATION_DT_1 field from the JOB scroll.

So I figured I could do this manually, by deleting the CI again (using a file project), recreating the CI, and then going into the properties and removing the field TERMINATION_DT_1 from the JOB record of the JOB scroll (or renaming the field to TERMINATION_DT_1_1). Both these options worked for me.

Can anyone else confirm if this is the case for them? Thanks.

I ran a trace, so here are some more details:

I created a post with a couple of queries. Check them out here:
