Setting added to customize using blank Map values

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.5

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".

Resolved importing PublicFormat file using RuleFromFile Wizard

Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4

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)". This was caused by a mapping failure related to the pyComments property in baseclass pega social functionality, and has been resolved with the addition of a new page group property pyComments of type "Data-MO-Annotation-Comment" which applies to "Embed-Rule-Obj-Flow-ProcessModel". In addition, a system property set has been added:'System.setProperty("javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory","com.sun.org.apache.xalan.internal.xsltc.trax.TransformerFactoryImpl");' to make the security flags work properly in java step of 'transformPublicFlow' activity

Handling added for new case type using reuse case life cycle

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6

Creating a new Case Type in a branch ruleset using the 'Reuse case life cycle' option was not working, and the error "branch rulseset not a candidate" was generated. pxCreateCaseDataPages that are called as part of creating a case rely on Param.RuleSetName; generally this parameter is set in the param page when other assets are created. When Reuse case life cycle was selected, other assets were not created and param.RuleSetname was not set. This affected pxCreateCaseDataPages when branch parameter was provided. This was a missed use case, and has been resolved by setting param.RuleSetName from param.ruleset to fix the issue.

Adjusted validation of literal value of a parameter

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6

When mapping a parameterized when rule to the proposition filter, parameters passed from the proposition filter page were not getting flown to the when rule. This was caused by special character validation for a literal value of a parameter which necessitated putting the parameter value within quotes and which resulted in a parameter value mismatch at run time. To support this use, this validation has been disabled as parameter values would not get included within quotes. This change does not have any impact on when rule or proposition filter rules java generation.

Dragon successfully navigates to user profile icon

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6

Formulas corrected for GenerateExcelFile

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6

After upgrade, using pxGenerateExcelFile to generate an Excel file resulted in some formulas and values not displaying. This scenario used an Excel template with two tabs - one showing direct page values and the second displaying the calculated values of first sheet. In the exported file, the formula was not getting evaluated unless and until the cell was activated with the enter key. This is a known limitation, and a temporary solution has been made here to add parameters that force the formula evaluations on the saved Excel document when editing is turned on. A more complete solution will be included in the next patch release.

Mask hidden as expected in small window/tablet view with Dragon

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6

When using Dragon in a small window/tablet view, the mask was not getting removed as expected. Performing a mouse click on the tab was successful for hiding it. To resolve this, Data-portal!pzProfileMenu has been modified to run the script removeScreenLayoutMask after clicking Profile, Preferences, Operator, Access Group, and My Favorites > Edit .

Expression Builder updated for special character handling

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6

If a modulo operator (%) was used in expression builder, the expression showed the correct value when it was submitted (closed) but on reopen the expression was changed and not calculated correctly. If the expression was not reopened then it calculated the value properly. This issue was traced to a server call to pzEvaluatePegaExpression which treated certain values as containing special characters, and has been resolved by updating the handling for this scenario.
