      Description

      The synchronizer had a bug where, when it ran at Feb 28, 17:10:00 the date was
      converted to GMT (March 1st); this was used to transition the campaigns to use
      March as the current month. However, the synchronizer also clears TL/BT/BF
      nodes and re-generates them during each run. These nodes were not updated with
      the new GMT timing and were in fact not using the command line date at all; thus
      the situation occurred that the hierarchy was using February as CurrentMonth
      while all of the existing campaigns were using March. The upload tool looks at
      all of the BF nodes and checks the file's date against that BF node's date:
      here, it was checking March against a CurrentMonth of February and a NextMonth
      of March. This would lead it to use NextMonth as the field that needed to be
      updated, and it would go through all of the children of that BF and set their
      NextMonth targetSpend to the appropriate values... but the campaigns, having
      been transitioned properly, had a CurrentMonth of March and a NextMonth of
      April, resulting in the issues we saw yesterday.
