    Prevalue sources not saving correctly when saving form data as content node

    I have a form with a Region prevalue source that uses a custom Region datatype that uses the Umbraco Dropdown property editor.

    I have a docType that uses the same custom Region datatype.

    The form uses the standard "Save as Umbraco Content Node" workflow and maps Region on the form to Region on the docType.

    If I select Wellington from the dropdown on the form, the text value "Wellington" is saved in cmsPropertyData for the newly created content node. However, this does not show in the back office or on the website as it should be saving the id value "389".

    How do I configure the workflow to save the id value instead? Or do I have to create a custom workflow as a work around.

    There is an existing issue that looks similar http://issues.umbraco.org/issue/CON-1468 that was raised as a Showstopper in Jan 2018, but it doesn't seem to have been looked at yet ... ...
