SA-2187

Summary



Work objects open in Pop up window rather than opening inside main PRPC Portal window

Error Messages



Work item is openeing in new window instead of work tab.


Steps to Reproduce



In a non PRPC application, configure a PRPC URL (you can do this through Snap Start). Click on PRPC link and launch the User/Manager Portal
While the main window (non PRPC window) still opened, inside the PRPC window, launch a POP up window that has a List View.
Click on a List View Row, work object will be opened in a new tab on the main PRPC window. This is working as expected.
