    Fixed problem

    Problem Short description Description Steps to reproduce

    Flow Designer (Family Channel)

    PRB1755683

    KB1640735

    There's unexpected triggering of 'Run Once' flows due to the data cleaner job in 'sys_flow_plan_context_binding'

    The data cleaner job is deleting records older than a year from the 'sys_flow_plan_context_binding' table. This is causing 'Run Once' flows to be triggered again, which is unexpected behavior.

    Refer to the listed KB article for details.
