Research direction

Start by locating the monthly cloning mechanism and the intermediate models involved in the #each loop. Read how cloned records receive ids and identity values, then trace the month-cloning flow. Done means cloned records have fresh ids, intermediate models expose identity again, and list updates work when the cloned month changes.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

When cloning a month into a new month, we should not be cloning the intermediate model _id's as this prevents the #each loop from updating as the "key" or "identity" isn't changing when the list changes.

  • We need a script to go through and create new id's for each of the records.
  • Put back the identity prop on the intermediate models
  • Fix cloning mechanism to strip any id's
