No support for Android versions earlier than 4.4 on mobile devices
Valid from Pega Version 7.3
Pega® Platform dynamic layouts by default now use Flexbox-based rendering. As a result, mobile devices running on Android versions earlier than 4.4 are not supported in Pega Platform. Such devices cannot render correctly with Flexbox because the Pega Mobile Client includes the default stock browser on the Android operating system.
Multiple notifications are delivered for the same Pulse post
Valid from Pega Version 7.3
When a user posts a Pulse comment, the users who subscribe to the activity feed might receive more than one notification if the posted comment triggers several notification rules.
For example, when a user posts a comment on a case that he or she follows, any response to the comment can result in the following notifications:
- Notification when a new comment is posted on the followed case (triggers the pyAddPulsePost notification definition)
- Notification when a comment is a response to the user’s original post (triggers the pyAddPulsePost notification definition)
- Notification when the user is mentioned in the comment (triggers the pyAddUserMentionedPost notification definition)
Surveys are not compatible with prior versions of the UI Kit
Valid from Pega Version 7.3
Now that survey functionality is available in the Pega-Survey ruleset, some rules are no longer compatible with prior versions of the UI Kit. To ensure that your surveys are rendered correctly, update your Application form to include version 09.01 of the UI Kit.
If you cannot change the version of the UI Kit, you can override the Work-.pyCaseActionArea section in your application and update it to use the same configuration as the section in version 09.01 of the UI Kit.
Surveys do not display navigation links
Valid from Pega Version 7.3
The navigation links, or bread crumbs, in a survey are not displayed when you configure a survey to run as a screen flow. To resolve this issue, override the Work-.pyCaseActionArea section in your application, and then update that section to include the Work-.ProcessSteps_ScreenFlow section.
Surveys do not display questions with custom templates
Valid from Pega Version 7.3
Because many rules have been refactored or renamed in the Pega-Survey ruleset, questions that use custom templates are not displayed in surveys. To resolve this issue, create a new version of the applicable sections from the Embed-PegaQ-Results-Question class in your application, and then update the sections to include your custom content and logic.
Package caching is not supported in offline-enabled applications built with the UI Kit 7 (09-01-01) portal
Valid from Pega Version 7.3
When you create an offline-enabled application in Pega® Platform, by default, it uses a portal with the UI Kit 7 (09-01-01) ruleset. In such a case, the package caching functionality cannot be used. You must either disable caching on the Advanced tab of the Access Group rule form, in the Offline Configuration section, or use an adaptive design instead of rendering different elements for different devices with the UI Kit 7 (09-01-01) ruleset.
For more information, see Access Group form - Completing the Advanced tab.
Unable to create text analytics models when Java 2 Security is enabled
Valid from Pega Version 7.3
Security exceptions that prevent you from creating text analytics models are caused by the Java 2 Security feature that is enabled at the JVM level. This feature denies access to the text analytics resources that are required for text parsing functions.
Creating a text analytics model results in a failure because of a number of security-related exceptions, for example:
java.security.AccessControlException: Access denied ("java.lang.RuntimePermission""createSecurityManager")
The suggested approach for avoiding this problem is to use the text analytics models that are provided by default, for example, pySentimentModels, pyTelecomTaxonomy, and so on.
For more information, see Text Analyzer.
No video controllers displayed on Android 4.3 and earlier versions
Valid from Pega Version 7.3
When you preview a video clip within Pega® Mobile Client on a mobile device that runs Android 4.3 or earlier versions, video controllers are not displayed in full-screen mode.
Upgrades and updates from Pega 7.3 on MSSQL fail with column name mismatch
Valid from Pega Version 7.3
This failure applies only to upgrades and updates from Pega® Platform 7.3 on systems running Microsoft® SQL Server®. In Pega 7.3, the capitalization for the column name pc_work_agile.pzPvStream is incorrect. The correct capitalization is pzPVStream. To prevent upgrade and update failures, before you upgrade or update, run the following command from the Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) to rename the column:
EXEC sp_rename ‘data-schema-name.pc_work_agile.pzPvStream', 'pzPVStream', 'COLUMN'
Reports on pc_work_agile table fail in Pega 7.3 on MSSQL
Valid from Pega Version 7.3
This failure applies only to Pega® Platform 7.3 on systems running Microsoft SQL Server. In Pega 7.3, the capitalization for the column name pc_work_agile.pzPvStream is incorrect. The correct capitalization is pzPVStream. To prevent reporting failures on the pc_work_agile table, run the following command from the Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) to rename the column after you install Pega 7.3:
EXEC sp_rename ‘data-schema-name.pc_work_agile.pzPvStream', 'pzPVStream', 'COLUMN'
