Error description
When the following are true: 1) Authoring template forces a workflow selection from a specified list 2) Authoring template's workflow user interface is a dropdown list (or dropdown list is chosen by the automatic selection) Then the following error occurs: When an administrator changes the inheritance options on a published content and then saves the content (in the authoring portlet), the inheritance changes will not be saved. The changes will be replaced with the inheritance options of the workflow stage the content is currently in.
Local fix
Change the user interface for the authoring template's workflow to: Paging Table (recommended for large quantities of choices). The error can be avoided by changing this setting.
Problem summary
Administrators are unable to set custom inheritance options on some content. When the following are true: 1) Authoring template forces a workflow selection from a specified list 2) Authoring template's workflow user interface is a dropdown list (or dropdown list is chosen by the automatic selection) Then the following error occurs: When an administrator changes the inheritance options on a published content and then saves the content (in the authoring portlet), the inheritance changes will not be saved. The changes will be replaced with the inheritance options of the workflow stage the content is currently in.
Problem conclusion
The save operation on was setting the workflow on the content, even when the workflow was unchanged. This was reverting the inheritance options.
