PackageComponent updated for use with repositories
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
Exporting a zip file created by the Component wizard to a repository resulted in an error, however the same process worked as expected when the zip file was created by the Product wizard. Investigation showed that pxPackageComponent was not kept up to date with new metadata requirements for Artifactory export. This has been resolved by modifying pxPackageComponent step 7 to set Param.ArtifactType to "component" and Param.ArtifactName to [component name]_[component version]. A privilege check has also been added to zipMoveExport.

Updated security for importing Excel to a decision table via a delegated rule
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
An error was seen when attempting to import an Excel file into a delegated decision table when using the case manager portal. This has been resolved by correcting a BAC issue for decision table import in the pzRuleDeclareDecisionTableStandard.js file.

Comments explicitly excluded from generated ruleset under localization
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
A generated URL link from Correspondence Fragment (WorkLink) which was saved in Pega-ProCom_ja was incorrect due to an incomplete URL. The ruleset Pega-ProCom_ja is not provided from the platform, but is generated when using localization. In this case, a comment fragment was included in the rule when it was generated, causing the issue. To resolve this, comment handling has been updated to ensure it's not included when generating the rule.

Logic made consistent for design time group condition
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
An inconsistency was seen between the logic string that appears when switching from "Group ORs" mode to "Use advanced logic" mode at design time, though whichever mode was used at Action check-in was always properly reflected on the generated proposition filter so there was no runtime impact. This design time issue was traced to the property "pyGroupConditionsByOld " being empty: this property is transient so its value will not be saved into database. This property should be updated whenever user changes the Logic operator from the drop-down, and this has been resolved by adding an intermediate property to hold the old group condition value when it changes.

New Application Wizard will default to existing work groups if none are created
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
When using the new application wizard to create a new application, the new app API replaces the old work pools with the newly generated ones. If the new application configuration was done in such a way that classes are not generated due to reusing existing classes, access groups were being generated with empty work pools. To resolve this, the system has been updated to use the existing work pools if the new app didn't generate new work pools.

Document generation new line formatting made consistent
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
The GenerateWordDocument API and Generate Document shape were not adding new line to a Word document even when Text Area format was used. This was traced to a difference in document generation which varied between adding \n and adding \r\n for new line, causing inconsistent behavior, and has been resolved.

Improved Page compare for page groups
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
Field level auditing on embedded properties sporadically did not report the "old" value when a property was modified even though the page was listed as "Modified". This has been resolved by adding logic to the pxComparePages algorithm to treat Lists and Groups differently. Now Page and Value Groups will use pxSubscript as the primary way to detect add and deletes.

Info messages added to merge and errors on merge failure
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
Logging used in the Merge Wizard process has been updated to provide feedback as the branches merge. In addition, the merge logic has been modified to use StepStatusFail as opposed to StepStatusGood.

MSOFileTransferButtons control withdrawn
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
After updating from Pega 8.2 to 8.6, attempting to modify migrated delegated rules resulted in a 403 error. This was traced to the Download/Upload activities configured to use the MSOFileTransferButtons control: BAC restrictions were introduced in Pega 8.5, and the MSOFileTransferButtons control is not compliant with these. The MSOFileTransferButtons control has now been withdrawn. The FilePath Control should be used in conjunction with pxParseExcelFile to upload and parse the Excel along with using the pxGenerateExcelFile activity for download.
