PackageComponent updated for use with repositories
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
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.

Survey navigation type set for use with complex CB refresh
Resolved in Pega Version 8.8
After upgrade from Pega 7.1 to Pega 8.5, creating a legacy survey used in pxSurveySection with a complex CB question page that contained a refresh option had collapsed tree navigation, the survey name was blank, and duplicate labels were found in picklist questions. To resolve this, an update has been added which will set the navigation type in parameters after a complex CB refresh and skip page copy while upgrading survey work objects.

Updated AttachmentPreview control for Account Manager Access Group
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
When using the Account Manager Access group as the default and only access group on a profile, attempting to render a PDF on the click of a link did not work as expected. The render-on-click worked as expected when logged in as the Author and the application was switched to Account Manager. This has been resolved by registering the activity pzAppStorageOkToAttachFile in the pzAttachmentPreview control.

Null check added for Application/AccessGroup system pages
Resolved in Pega Version 8.8
In some scenarios the Application/AccessGroup system pages used by the Choose Best RuleSet API to group/cache the user's ruleset could be null, resulting in a null pointer exception when using the pxCreateRecord Activity for the data instance creation. A null check has been added to avoid the exception, and a complete resolution for the null pages will be available in a future release.

Loop handling updated for Decision Table OR conditions
Resolved in Pega Version 8.8
The system was crashing when saving or checking in a decision table with 21 columns and 20 rows where each cell contained 1, 2, or 3 OR conditions. Investigation showed this was caused by an indefinite number of loops when 'or' conditions were used in the test consistency activity, and this has been resolved with an update which ensures only the specified number of loops are performed.

Logic made consistent for design time group condition
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
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.

Null check added to getBaseRef
Resolved in Pega Version 8.8
When using a customized Cosmos portal that included tabs, some of the Pega APIs were not available in the child frame and javascript errors were generated when calculating the clipboard path for live UI elements. This was traced to invalid references to "pega.api.ui.util.getBaseRef", and has been resolved by adding null checks to the getBaseRef API call to make sure javascript errors are not thrown.

New Application Wizard will default to existing work groups if none are created
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
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.
