• Type: Bug
• Status: Closed
• Resolution: Duplicate
• Affects Version/s: 6.1.X EE, 6.2.10 EE GA1
• Fix Version/s: 6.2.X EE
• Component/s: Dynamic Data Lists, Dynamic Data Lists > Form, Dynamic Data Mapping, Workflow > Upgrade
• Labels: None

3. Add DDL detail (form) template
4. Upgrade to ee-6.2.10
5. Assert console exceptions
