only): Cannot update a parallel task forwarded to one of the approvers
If multiple approvers edit the parallel task (Advanced submission) at the same time, and one of them forwards the task to another, that user will receive a "Do you want to save your changes?" message with Cancel and Save buttons, but clicking on either button will do nothing.
Workaround: Switch to any other task, and then go back to the task in question to get its latest changes.
, Intune only): Cannot load document edits made in Microsoft 365 Copilot app
When you edit a WorkZone document via relevant 365 Copilot app, and then open that document in WorkZone, your annotations are not displayed, and sometimes the white screen appears.
Workaround: Microsoft is currently working on a solution to resolve this issue.
only): Log-in fails, if you switch to another WorkZone server URL
If you try to switch to another WorkZone server URL (for example, if your organization uses more than one WorkZone servers) shortly after successfully logging in to a different WorkZone server URL, the log-in fails.
Workaround: Close and restart the WorkZone Mobile (Ny) app, and then enter the new URL.
only): No confirmation dialog for canceling some PDF annotations
If you click Cancel for PDF annotations made via red pencil drawing, some marker drawing, or text insertions, there is no confirmation dialog asking if you are sure that you want to cancel these changes.
Workaround: As the last annotation, use one of the markers that do not cause this issue (for example, the yellow marker).
only): Parliamentary Question tasks do not work
Tasks that have the Parliamentary Question process type are currently not supported in the WorkZone Mobile (Ny) app.
only): Incorrect number of processing documents after adding a new document

Workaround: Close and restart the WorkZone Mobile (Ny) app.
only): Marker annotations are not saved in the Cancel > Save flow
If you make PDF annotations via marker drawing, then tap Cancel, and select Save, your changes are not saved.
Workaround: After making marker drawing annotations, switch to another annotation tool (for example, text highlight, or adding some text) before saving your changes.
