Refresh works for nested lists

Resolved in Pega Version 8.7

After creating Pagelist A with another Pagelist within (B), a section was created with a repeating dynamic layout to display Pagelist A and a button was added with action set to refresh this section. In the embedded section of the repeating dynamic layout, a nested repeating dynamic layout was created for Pagelist B and a button was set to refresh this section. When using this configuration, the refresh was returning the actionID for Pagelist A regardless of which button was used. To resolve this, an update has been made which will iterate over the stack and append the individual indexes to the encoded value in the pzAPICreateJsonForField function.

Locking settings enabled for circumstanced case types

Resolved in Pega Version 8.7

Optimistic locking options were not present for a circumstanced case type, and the option to select the "Lock parent case when an action is performed on this case" check box was not available. However, when the parent case type was enabled with optimistic locking, a circumstanced child case could inherit a lock from its parent. Because "Lock parent case when an action is performed on this case" was not enabled on the circumstanced child case type, trying to update the parent case from the child case and save the parent case resulted in a "Lock not held on parent" error. This was a missed use case, and has been resolved by enabling locking settings in Case Designer for circumstanced case types.

Handling updated for custom attachment method

Resolved in Pega Version 8.7

When sending a correspondence using the standard SendSimpleEmail activity, choosing only one attachment from the multiple attachments in the work object by passing the pxLinkedRefTo property from the clipboard page to the AttachmentKeysToSend parameter instead of passing the value to the AttachmentCategoriesToSend parameter successfully sent the message and attached it to the work object. However, opening the correspondence attached to the work object showed the attached file as blank even though the attachment was present in the receiver’s email. Research showed that during the comparison of keys in place of pxLinkedRefTo, pzinskey was used. This caused the comparison to not register as true and the attachments display was skipped. Duplicate files were also being attached due to the previously attached files not being verified. Previous work updated the Data-Corr-Email.Show Html rule to use the pxLinkedRefTo field to find the right attachment. The URL encryption was also updated to ensure the links are functional and attachments can be downloaded. Additional work has been added to expand the use of the pxLinkedRefTo field to Show HTML called from @baseclass.

Java Bean import updated to handling differences in Java 7 and Java 8

Resolved in Pega Version 8.7

The behavior of the java bean Introspector class is inconsistent across different versions of the JDK when detecting indexed properties built off of java.util.List objects, causing Java Bean import to generate differently in Java 7 and Java 8. This has been resolved by updating PRIndexedPropertyDescriptor to better handle this JDK difference by resolving indexed read and write methods manually using simple reflection.

Validation error message corrected for delegated SLA rule

Resolved in Pega Version 8.7

When delegating any SLA rule to a Business user like the Manager Access group, editing it from the Case Manager portal did not give an option to configure seconds in that available text field (label hh:mm) even though the validation error stated that the time needed to be in hh:mm:ss format. The pzDelegatedSLAGoal, pzDelegatedSLADeadline and pzDelegatedSLAPassedDeadline sections do not include seconds field, which is a difference from Designer Studio (hh:mm:ss). For this update, the validation error message has been corrected to indicate only hh:mm is used while delegating the SLA rule. An enhancement is planned in a future version to support the hh:mm:ss format for this use.

Updated handling for validating/saving circumstanced rule on branch

Resolved in Pega Version 8.7

Using 'save as' for an already circumstanced rule with a new property/template caused the Rule-.DictionaryValidation activity to register the error "StandardValidate-CircumPropAlreadyDefined". The same activity Step did not throw an error when saving into Branch. This was traced to the ruleset name not being the same for the branch ruleset due to having _BRANCH_Branch-Name appended to its name, and has been resolved by adding a condition to check for circumstanced rule in a branch.

Updated Pega DX API special character handling

Resolved in Pega Version 8.7

When the using Pega API v1 and invoking api/v1/cases/{ID}/actions/{actionID} for a few fields in section, special characters were being converted into HTML entities. For example,"You'll usually find this information in your terms and conditions." was being converted as "You& #39;ll usually find this information in your terms and conditions" in the API response. This has been resolved by updating the system to ensure the pyDXAPIEncodeValues application setting is honored.

Oracle handling updated for primary key in upgrade DDL

Resolved in Pega Version 8.7

Previously, when a primary key of a table was created Oracle would automatically create a unique index with the same name as the primary key. However, with the introduction of Oracle 19, an optimization was added which will not do that if there is another unique index on the table which contains the column(s) of the primary key. This difference can cause updates to fail with the error "cannot drop index used for enforcement of unique/primary key". This has been resolved by updating the handling for primary key constraint and the corresponding index name.

Query added to find time zone for MSSQL database

Resolved in Pega Version 8.7

The exception "com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: xp_regread() returned error 5, 'Access is denied.'" was generated when the AES agent PushDBSizeInfo was being run. This was traced to the GetDBInfo activity trying to retrieve the time zone of the MSSQL database by executing a query that used a Microsoft SQL routine to read the windows registry to get the current time zone. The error was not due to security within the SQL Server, but instead was caused by Microsoft Windows security related to the permissions on the registry keys for the users under which specific SQL Server processes were running. To resolve this, an update has been made to call a different query which will get the time zone for the SQL Server.

SortPageList method updated for Obj-Sort

Resolved in Pega Version 8.7

Sorting page lists backed by a node level datapage using Obj-Sort was causing a ConcurrentModificationException. This has been resolved by updating the SorterImpl.sortPageList method to use java7CollectionsSort instead of collectionsSortWithInferenceEngineDisabled.
