Stages and Steps may not appear as expected
Valid from Pega Version 7.1.5
There are some unique configurations of the newly enhanced pxDisplayStages gadget that can lead to case type "Stages and Steps" appearing more than once or not at all. In the event that your application experiences one of these scenarios, the recommended work around is to relocate the gadget:
- Add pxDisplayStages to the pyCaseContainer section (or equivalent)
- Remove pxDisplayStages from the pyCaseActionArea section (or equivalent).
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".

You cannot save a shared instance from the tenant layer if that instance cannot be overridden.
Context-specific documentation is not available in express mode
Valid from Pega Version 7.1.9

Alternatively, you can view the contextual help system for Pega 7 Express in a separate browser tab.
Design-time limitations in express mode
Valid from Pega Version 7.1.9
Some limitations apply when you develop an enterprise application in express mode. At design time, some features are disabled or have limited options when you configure them in Designer Studio and switch to express mode. The use of these features does not restrict the run-time behavior of your application; however, you cannot change the configuration of these features unless you switch from express mode to Designer Studio.
For more information about each limitation and the recommended action to take, see the following information:
- Pega 7.2.2 Design-time limitations in express mode
