Party ID error after Creating and Editing Flows exercise
After implementing the Exercise Solution (downloaded from Pega Academy) for Case Design > Creating and Editing Flows, when I create an Onboarding case, I get an error "Party ID:This field may not be blank" on the "SETUP ORIENTATION SCHEDULE" screen.
I have no idea why this happens since the exercise did not have us do anything with that screen. Any ideas how to resolve this? I cannot work through to the solution since the exercise makes changes to steps that occur later in the case lifecycle.
Thanks,
Phil

For future reference, this issue has a workaround- when creating a new OnBoarding case, make sure to enter an email address for the candidate. Otherwise you will run into the error "Party ID:This field may not be blank"
Work Parties can be added automatically to a case via the pyCaseManagementDefault Work Parties rule if "VOE" (visible on entry) is checked.
Regardless how your problem Work Party is being added, it is missing critical information such as a unique "Party ID".
Take a look at the parameters to the Work-.addWorkObjectParty Activity.
"PartyRole" is passed in. "Party ID" is generated. "Party ID" is the same as "PartyRole" for singular WorkParties.
For repeatable parties, ["_" + <nth repeat>] "will be appended to "PartyRole" to form the value of "Party ID".
Either there is an attempt to reference a .pyWorkParty() property without supplying the "Party ID" subscript or the subscript is assumed but there is no corresponding Data-Party property.
Whenever you submit a Flow Action, the Data-Party.Validate Activity will be called. This Activity verifies that every PartyRole used is defined in the pyCaseManagementDefault Work Parties rule.
Have you traced to identify where this error occurs?
