On : 11.3.0.19 version, General

ACTUAL BEHAVIOR
---------------
When there are Function calls inside Functions, it appears that the context of the original Override is lost.
This results in Copybooks choosing to use Global Overrides when they should have used a Plan/Product Override.

In the Loan and Not Taken Transactions, there are the AgreementRequestInitiated and AgreementRequestSubmitted Events that make a call to Function-CreateAgreementRequest, a Global Override Function.
This in turn makes a call to another Function, Function-CreateBusinessEventCollection, another Global Override Function. Inside this function, the Copybook calls CopyBook-BusinessEvent-ProductCategoryName which has a Global Override and a Whole Life Products Override. When this action is selected, the CopyBook being selected is the Global Override for Annuity, when it should have gone to the Whole Life Products override since both Loan and Not Taken were being run on a GIFE Policy.


EXPECTED BEHAVIOR
-----------------------
Correct CopyBook Override is taken when context is passed through Functions.


STEPS
-----------------------
The issue can be reproduced at will with the following steps:
1. Create a Product Override Transaction call a Global Function that calls a Global Function which contains a Copybook with a Global Override and a Product Override that matches the original Transaction.
2. Observe the Global Copybook get utilized when it should use the Override.
