Updated use and edit of the 'Search for work' rule
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.9
After upgrade, an out-of-the-box functionality to search for work items by selecting the case status and selecting a particular field to add as filter on that search was not working correctly and the search icon (which gives the list of status window dynamically) was missing. An attempt to perform a private check out of of the rule generated an error and did not allow 'save as' because it was unable to identify a property pyStringType. This issue was traced to a missing property 'pyStringType' in @baseclass, and this has been added.

Setting added to customize using blank Map values
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
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".

Cleaned up 'clear pages after non-use' function
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.9
When the 'clear pages after non-use' option is selected, all the referencing threads should be closed and the page should be removed automatically. Instead, the document and threads were closed but the data page was not removed. This was traced to the Thread context not being present in the ThreadContainer during thread clean up, and has been corrected.

Fail-over updated to cover server crash scenarios
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.9
In a testing event, the user session did not properly fail over to another server if the original server was shut down; an error was thrown instead. This was found to be an authentication issue where on node crash, a new requestor was created on the second node and then immediately authenticated as it is SSO. As part of authentication, the mRequiresSpecialProcessingForNodeCrash flag was cleared, meaning the node crash activity was not executed and entire portal was not refreshed. This has been corrected by updating the system to execute crash node activity for SSO cases.

Expanded results for Proposition Filter Relevant Record Properties
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
Previously, a maximum of 500 records were returned from pr_data_tag_relevantrecord when using Edit Parameters for the report definition proposition filter rule. In order to accommodate more complex needs, an update has been made to use the D_pxGetClassDataModel data page to fetch all the records and make them available in the dropdown.

Added Params to activity display before check-in
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.9
When calling an activity from another activity, parameters were not being properly retrieved in the calling activity call step unless there was a check-in that called activity. This happened when a private ruleset was not in the user's context and therefore the checked out rule was not picked up. To correct this, the open activity method has been modified to use db.open() .

Removed primary page requirement for link-object activity
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.9
When using the link-object activity method with the history checkmark and the specified step page without providing a primary page, the link-object activity method caused a null-pointer-exception when it attempted to fetch data from the pxRequestor page. This was caused by an unnecessary reference to the primary page, and the method to retrieve the value of pyUserIdentifier has been updated.

DSS added to control Pega Version Banner
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
Nuisance errors were being logged related to the application trying to connect to Pega to confirm available versions. This has been resolved by adding the 'when' rule pyShowVersionBanner to pzStudioHomeWrapper which allows disabling/enabling the Version Banner based on the setting used in the DSS ShowVersionBanner. pyShowVersionBanner defaults to true when DSS ShowVersionBanner does not exist.

Concurrent Modification Exception resolved
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.9
When attempting to open a case from the instances tab (Right click on case -> View -> Instances), a ConcurrentModificationException was generated on the pyWorkPage . This was a problem with a JSP fragment which iterated on and unexpectedly modified the mContent. To avoid this error, the system will create a copy of the content for use in iteration.
