Cannot copy final section rules in UI Kit ruleset
Valid from Pega Version 7.1.6
You cannot copy section rules in the UI Kit ruleset (UI-Kit-71) that start with pz or px (final rules in the base PRPC rulesets).
Instead, to customize these rules, use the Copy/Merge Ruleset tool, available at
, to copy all rules from the UI Kit into your application ruleset. You can then check the section rules in and out.Nesting dynamic containers not supported
Valid from Pega Version 7.1.1
Do not include a section containing a dynamic container inside of another dynamic container. This configuration may cause performance issues resulting in unexpected behavior at runtime, and is not supported.
Text Input control number type does not validate
Valid from Pega Version 7.1.5
When a Text Input control type is set to "Number" in the Presentation tab:
- Validation does not trigger and the field is blanked out when a user submits the form.
- If a value other than a number is entered, the browser sends an empty value, and the value is not validated.
- In the Clipboard, the field value displays as empty.
- If the field is required, the validation displays.
This issue occurs when using both the Chrome and Safari web browsers, and is a result of browser behavior for the HTML5 type=“number”. To fix this issue when using these browsers, do not use the "Number" type in Presentation tab of a Text Input control. Instead, the type should be set to "Text".
Tracked changes persist between client sessions
Valid from Pega Version 7.1.7
The Microsoft Word native change tracking feature persists between client sessions for specifications. Enable this feature to facilitate collaborative reviews of your specifications with project stakeholders.
Inserting your specification updates as tracked changes allows you to:
- Provide visible markup to the next reviewer.
- Correlate edits to a specific user and time.
- Generate documents that include markup and comments.
Local settings, such as the colors you specify for markup, do not persist between clients.
For instructions on how to prevent markup and comments from appearing in generated documents, see Advanced options for editing specifications.

View and access your attachments from the Application Profile landing page, Requirement form, or Specification form.
