So I guess good news is that the data is correct in the list, and only corrupts when you attempt to Edit, so our integrations and workflows are at least working properly in that regard. Our "workaround" has been to save the original values of the People pickers in a text field via workflows so that the data is at least available for later triage if necessary.

Stefan Goßner Hello, when can we expect this to be fixed? We have various integrated processes within our company that are affected by this. Each item in our lists need to be edited daily to trigger certain workflow email alerts through PowerAutomate, but whenever someone goes to edit an item in a list and saves it, all of the assignee information disappears. This causes us to not only lose that information in that SharePoint item, but also does not trigger our PowerAutomate workflows since the Assignee information is missing. So people are no longer alerted when one of their tasks has been updated.
This has caused a large disruption to our daily work here, especially since we just migrated our information & processes to SharePoint 4 weeks ago. Please let us know ASAP when this will be fixed, or if there is a temporary solution we can implement.
Thank you.
