Test Execution status is reset when a test case step is updated

[Srinivasan Anantharaman]

Changing the test case steps for an already executed test execution resets the execution results to TODO. How to avoid this? Our requirement has hundreds of test cases already executed via test executions and when some amendments to est cases are made due to some enhancements, already executed results get overwritten when a "merge" or "reset" is clicked on a test execution. Any means to overcome it?

Scenario:

Test Cases (T1, T2, T3, T4, T5) are created and executed in Test Execution (TE1, TE2) with status PASS for all tests

Test Cases (T1, T2, T3) are updated with additional steps / validations

For the already executed Test Execution (TE1, TE2) an alert to "Merge" or "Reset" is asked for. A merge or reset updates the test cases  but the execution status also is reset to "TO DO"

Has anyone heard anything about this?  I run into this issue on a regular basis.  It requires me to save my test evidence elsewhere, just in case xray loses it due to this update/merge issue.
