3541945 - System does not save value change in Position object

• When attempting to change the value of a field in a position (for example, picklist field with 'yesno' picklist) the system does not save the change.
• No rules have been configured in the position object to alter the value.

1. Access the environment.
2. Navigate to a position record in Manage Positions.
3. Make Correction on the record and attempt to change the value of the field.
4. Save the changes.
5. Observe that the field change is not saved.

• At least two different UI fields are linked to the same position field.
• As a result, when an update is made to the first field and not the second, the system does not save the change.
• This is because the system only supports a one-to-one relationship between UI fields and Position/MDF Generic Object(GO) fields.

1. Navigate to the Configuration UI used for the Position/MDF Generic Object.
2. Remove one of the UI fields that is pointing towards the same Position/MDF Generic Object field(GO)
3. Save the changes.
