Steps to Reproduce

Root Cause



A defect in Pegasystems’ code or rules. In SetScoring Activity user is calling QuestionCollection FUA in which based on answerindex parameters, an attempt is made to evaluate score in FUA.

Since the parameters are not reset all other questions other than changed question, are also passed the same parameters.

Resetting the params(AnswerIndex) in SetScoring Activity will resolve the issue.

Resolution



HFix-25191 resolves the reported behavior.
