2474440 - Time Account Type Drop Down Menu Only Shows External Name after 1705.

Symptom

There is a difference in the values displayed in the Time Account Type drop down menu under Manage Time Off Calendars.

Before b1705 it showed the external code and external name.

After b1705 it shows only the external name.  This creates confusion as some customers use the same external name for the time account types.

Environment

b1705

Reproducing the Issue

Before b1705 when selecting the time account type under manage time off calendars the drop down menu was:

After b1705 it looks like:

Resolution

This has been fixed in the b1708 release.

However, this is only for the New Calendar UI screen as shown in the above screenshot.

The Time Account Type Drop filter drop down on the main calendar UI, still only shows the external name and not the external code.

Engineering have fixed this with the b1711 release (on the new Calendar UI as shown below)

Workaround: To differentiate the annual leaves you can change the external name through Manage Data> Time Account Type.
