Personalized views in table layouts
Valid from Pega Version 8.4
Table layouts now provide users with the option to save preferred run-time configurations, such as column visibility and filtering, as permanent profiles. This enhancement helps users create dedicated views for specific work scenarios, which reduces the need for repetitive adjustments to the user interface and improves productivity.
For more information, see Enabling table personalization.
Upgrade impact
After an upgrade to 8.4 and later, the default table toolbar styling and experience may be unexpectedly different for any customized tables in a client's application: if you enabled a tool bar action for a personalizable table and the 8.4 application overrides your customization, your application now displays the default 8.4 table toolbar.
What steps are required to update the application to be compatible with this change?
Existing clients that upgrade to Pega Platform 8.4 and later may need to update applications in some scenarios. Any custom actions present in the overridden section may need to be re-authored into this toolbar using the additional actions section.
Improved case auditing in App Studio
Valid from Pega Version 8.5
In Cosmos UI, App Studio now supports expandable case steps. This enhancement helps users quickly navigate a case and provides deeper insight into the case flow. In addition, Cosmos UI also introduces an improved history view that helps you better meet your business auditing requirements.
For more information, see Managing Cosmos UI settings in case designer.
Upgrade impact
After an upgrade to Pega Platform 8.5 or later, the history and chevron designs change automatically. However, applications with custom history settings might still display the styling that you defined in the override.
What steps are required to update the application to be compatible with this change?
If your application uses custom settings and you want to use the updated history, remove the overrides from the pyWorkCommonActions rule.
