Issue/Introduction

In the Modern User Experience (UX / UI), when creating a budget plan, the submit option is set to merge even when the default is set to Replace.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Navigate to the Cost Plan object (Administration -> Objects -> {Cost Plan})
2. Open the "Submit Option" attribute
3. Set the "Default" field to "Replace"
4. In Classic PPM, create a new project (Home -> Projects)
5. Provide Department and Location to the newly created project ({Project} -> Settings {Sub page})
6. Create a new Cost Plan ({Project} -> Financial Plans {tab})
7. Submit the newly created Cost Plan for approval as budget plan (Actions {from Cost Plan list view} -> Submit Plan of Record for approval)
8. Provide a Plan ID in the "Submit For Approval" page
9. Navigate to submitted Budget Plan and approve it (Budget Plans {sub page})
10. Navigate back to the Cost Plans sub page. Create a new Cost Plan and submit it for approval again, as in Step 7
11. Notice that the "Submit Option" field is set to "Replace"
12. Now open the same project in the New UI
13. Navigate to the Financials tab
14. Display the List view by selecting the icon from the top left corner of the page
15. Submit the Plan of Record for approval
16. Notice that the "Submit Option" field is set to "Merge"

Expected Result: In Step 16, the "Submit Option" field is defaulted to "Replace"
Actual Result: In Step 16, the "Submit Option" field is set to "Merge"
