Updated logic for Spinner API used in DateTime control
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When selecting 11, 22, 33, 44 in minutes in the DateTime picker, 11 was rounded off to 10, 22 was rounded off to 20, 33 was rounded off to 30, etc. This was due to the match and increment behavior in the UI Spinner Js API used by the DateTime control, and has been resolved by modifying the logic used to calculate the nextIndex in the keydownHandler API under ui_spinner.js .

Setting added to customize using blank Map values
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
After upgrade to from Pega 6 to Pega 8 some of the Map Value rules were not working. This was due to the handling for blank default values which was changed in Pega 7. In order to support backwards compatibility, a new 'when' rule has been added which allows customizing whether or not blank values are allowed for the Map value default columns. pyAllowBlankValues will default to "false".

Withdraw task notification uses correct email sender
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When withdrawing a Task, the withdraw email was sent from the default email box instead of the expected Application default email box. This was traced to the 'pyTaskDeleted' (notification name for withdraw task) value not being present, which meant the system fell back to the task 'pyTaskAssigned' notification name. To resolve this, an update has been made to have pyIsPulseNotificationDefinition return true for a pyTaskDeleted notification.

Updated locales to properly use Other Currency option
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1
When the Currency control was configured to display "Other currency" symbol value and the property was populated with USD, the property is displayed as 100.00 / USD in the es_CR, es_GT and es_HN locale, but in local format only for the es_PA, es_NI and es_SV locales. This was an issue with the default Currency Symbol values for es_PA, es_NI, es_SV pointing to old ICU2 formats, and has been fixed by changing the currencysymbol attribute in es_PA.xml, es_CR.xml, and es_SV.xml.

Value Finder updated for use with external Cassandra nodes
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Attempting to use the Value Finder feature resulted in the error "Running Simulation is not possible because the required services are not available. Contact your System Administrator to enable the data flow and decisioning data store services." Analysis traced this to a check which identifies whether there is more than one internal node available for CDH/ DSS node. Since there were only external nodes available in this scenario and no internal nodes, the method returned false and returned the error when the CDH / VF page was launched. To resolve this, the check has been modified to allow for external Cassandra.

Corrected test connection for LDAP AuthService using keystore
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
When using a AuthService rule defined for LDAP using ldaps:// and a KeyStore rule that was defined to reference a local file in the server, the Test Connection button on the AuthService rule did not work and generated the following exception: "com.pega.apache.commons.httpclient.contrib.ssl.AuthSSLInitializationError: I/O error reading keystore/truststore file: null". Investigation showed that file reference keystore did not work with an LDAPS test connection because while run time used the LDAPVerifyCredentials activity, the design time validation used the activity “ValidateInfrastructure” which did not have the required code to support file reference keystore. This has been corrected.

Documentation updated for accents and special characters used in search
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
The "Pega search API" article has been updated to reflect that the search functionality in Pega Platform does not match accented words with unaccented. For example, searching for santé and sante will retrieve different results. In addition, Domain Specific Language (DSL) includes special characters for use when searching, for example '-', '_', '!', '@'. However, the system retrieves various results depending on the way the special characters are used in the search query. If the query contains special characters that are not escaped, the system may retrieve incorrect results. For example, not escaping the slash mark in the 25/02 query may cause the system to ignore the special character.

When attempting to create a flow from a Public Format XML file using the Rule From File Wizard, the following error was seen: "Problem invoking function: pega_procom_harvest.performXSLT--(String,String,boolean,HashStringMap)".

Handling added for long names when exporting DataType columns
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1
Values were not being displayed in an exported file for a column with a name exceeding 30 characters. This was traced to the values being mapped to a hashed value that truncated the name and caused the alias to not be found when expanding the data, and has been fixed.
