3786867 - Course affiliation shows active for inactive course and duplicate affiliations in icontent management tool

Symptom

  • The “Course Affiliation” status is displayed incorrectly for an iContent object.
  • In Production, a course is shown as active in the Course Affiliation column even though the course itself is inactive (the iContent object is active).
  • The number of course affiliations is higher in Preview, where affiliations appear duplicated compared to Production and Stage.
