Editing Multiple Index Entries only does half??-1532091329

Not sure if anyone else is encounting this...but been coming across it fairly often primarily in version 6.12 and 7.  When trying to Edit Multiple Index Entries....DocuWare only changes half of them.  For example...if there's 28 total documents we're editing....it will first do 14, then you have to select all the remaining ones....then it will only do 7, select the remaining, then it will do the rest.  Is this normal behavior and is anyone else experienceing this?

Thanks!

Daryl,
Please open a support request so you can demonstrate the behavior for us. This is the first time I've heard of this.

Is this the same thing?

Not sure how (or if) that ever got resolved...

Thanks,

Quite possible, but without investigation I cannot say. We need details.

That's the exact behavior...I'm not getting an error....but I didn't look in the log files either.  My co-worker has the same issue with a 6.12 on Prem system.

(Repost from my previous pst)

according to Docuware, this is a known bug (obviously known only to them as we all have to go thru troubleshooting pains).
The bug is that let's say you have a tasklist (or a result list) with a selection based on a certain index field and then you use 'Change Index Values for ALL Entries" and trying to change THAT index field - then only half of documents are changed.

I think this may have been submitted as bug #208816 (refer to my SR #278616, button to "Change index entries for all documents" does not change all docs)

I noticed there hasn't been an update on this issue yet and the last patch for 6.12 was released on 8-9-2018.  We have a customer that's migrating from a different DM system that has run into this when cleaning up index entries from the import.  If it's any help here is the associated error from the Platform Error Log:

New entry --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
