instance resource does not return upon released

Hi

I have created an instance Tech2 from Tech1. Upon releasing the Tech2, the resource does not return to reset position. Wonder if this is a bug.

instance resource does not return to reset position.fsm

When the Tech2 is created as an instance it is not getting added as a member of the pre-built staff process flow which guides the tech staff to return to its reset position. So for creating a new tech staff try creating a duplicate object using the "Duplicate Object" button under the groups tab of the Tech1 staff. By creating staff using the duplicate object option the staff gets automatically added to the pre-built staff process flow. If the instantiated member is not getting added to the prebuilt process flow by design then it's not a bug otherwise it's a bug.

If duplicating the object creates a process flow instance/member link then creating an instance should do the same - I'll send this into the dev team.
