We are seeing an issue with UFT removing links from child nodes to the Start node in API tests.

Our steps to reproduce (we have seen this done with other WSDLs too, for example the Flight API sample for the UFT tutorial):

1. Create new API test.
2. Import WSDL file WorkOrderService.wsdl
3. Go to Start node and add test input parameter:

Name: WorkOrderId

Type: Int

Default: 2018
4. Drag from Local Activities > Web Services > WorkOrderServiceSOAP > CreateWorkOrder to the canvas.
5. Click on the CreateWorkOrder node on the canvas.
6. Go to the Inputs/Checkpoints properties tab.
7. Link the test input parameter WorkOrderID to following locations.

/Envelope[1]/Body[1]/CreateWorkOrderResponse[1]/ArrayOfWorkOrder[1]/WorkOrder[1]/WorkOrderId[1]

/Envelope[1]/Body[1]/CreateWorkOrderRequest[1]/ArrayOfCreateWorkOrderType[1]/CreateWorkOrderType[1]/ArrayOfWorkOrderPackage[1]/WorkPackage[1]/WorkOrderId[1]

/Envelope[1]/Body[1]/CreateWorkOrderRequest[1]/ArrayOfCreateWorkOrderType[1]/CreateWorkOrderType[1]/ArrayOfWorkOrderPackage[1]/WorkPackage[1]/ArrayOfWorkPackageTask[1]/WorkPackageTask[1]/WorkOrderId[1]

/Envelope[1]/Body[1]/CreateWorkOrderRequest[1]/ArrayOfCreateWorkOrderType[1]/CreateWorkOrderType[1]/ArrayOfWorkOrderPackage[1]/WorkPackage[1]/ArrayOfWorkPackageTask[1]/WorkPackageTask[1]/ArrayOfEquipmentTask[1]/EquipmentTask[1]/WorkOrderId[1]

.8. Save test

.9. Go to Start node and add new test input parameter:

Name: Dummy

Type: String

Default: Blue

.10. Go to node CreateWorkOrder and check the above links made to WorkOrderId some of them are missing.
