Data Propagation not working as expected
I am working on a fairly simple POC to demonstrate Pega features. I am having trouble with Data Propagation.
To begin, I created a Case Type called "Order" with a property "Order Number". I then created child Case Types called "Part", "Labor","Return", each child case has the property "Order Number".
On the Parent Case, I updated the "Propagate Data" configurations for each child case type with Order Number being propagated.
On my Parent Case, I added steps of type "Case" for each child case type (and set each step to "Start upon Stage entry"
The problem I encounter is that when I choose "+Create" and create a new Parent case, child cases are created but only on of the child cases has teh data propagated to it.
Is there a limitation that data can only be propagated to one child case type? I am using Pega 7.1.9 for this POC.

interesting. Can you please check the clipboard to see if the pyWorkCover has value in there.

After reviewing the help documents I learned that if you add a step to the parent case that creates the child steps, then the data do not automatically propagate. However, if you simply allow Pega to create the child cases automatically, the data propagates. I tested it and it worked.
