Root Cause

A defect in Pegasystems’ code or rules: The AttachmentList page is no more used now. Hence we need to use the pyAttachments page under the pyWorkPage for the attachments reference.
Perform the following local-change: Override the Data-Corr-Email.SHOW html rule ( Available), as mentioned below:
Replace the code under the following WHEN rule, line in Green is the new changes

<pega:when test='.pyAttachmentCategories != ""'>

<%
String serverURL = tools.findPage("pxThread").getString("pxReqURI"); // Get the requestor URL
ClipboardProperty AttachmentListPageList = tools.findPage("pyWorkPage").getProperty(".pyAttachments");// Get the page that has the WO attachments
String attachmentsInEmail[] = tools.getProperty(".pyAttachmentCategories").toString().split(","); // The Email attachments are seperated by commas

%>

</pega:when>
