Decision table null input handling updated for backward compatibility
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
After update, any null values as inputs in the decision tables were skipped if "Allow Missing properties" was not checked. This behavior was different from previous versions. In order to improve backward compatibility, the new function pxEvaluateDecisionTable has been added which has an additional parameter to set AllowMissingProperties, and the older function logic has been modified to take the parameter value from the parameter page.

Support added for connect-SOAP run in parallel mode
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
When connect-SOAP was configured to use the “run in parallel” mode, application settings derived through a datapage had incorrect values. While running the connect-SOAP through an activity, all the values were derived incorrectly. This has been resolved by adding a synchronization enhancement to support parallel run connect.SOAP.

Setting added to customize using blank Map values
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
After update 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".

Improvements for Offer Eligibility rules loading time
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
After opening the Proposition filter/Action rule and clicking on Add Criteria, the pxAnyPicker drop down load was taking an excessive amount of time. Performance improvements have been made by adding a precondition at step 2 to avoid data page refresh for specific scenarios when it is not required.

Expanded results for Proposition Filter Relevant Record Properties
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
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.

Delegated rules search considers localized text
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
The search / filter box used to look for particular delegated rules on the configuration tab did not consider localization via field values, where the on screen name and description of the delegated rule was localized. This resulted in the search text being compared against the original text (.pyAdviceText and .pyDescription) used for the name and description at the time the rule was delegated, but not with the localized text that actually appeared on the screen. This has been resolved by updating the pzPopulateDelegations activity to filter by localized values of pyAdviceText and pyDescription.

Browser invocation allowed for UnlockOperator
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
Attempting to unlock an operator who was locked out due to security policies was failing. This was an unintended side effect of security work performed earlier, and has been resolved by reenabling 'Allow invocation from browser ' for pzUnlockOperator. This activity requires an authentication check with privilege protection.

Guided tour popups handling added for right-to-left language locales
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8
Guided Tour Popups were still appearing in the default EN location after switching to the ar_AR locale. This was traced to a missed use case for locales using a right-to-left mode such as Arabic or Hebrew, and has been resolved by updating the guided tour engine openPopOver function to account for the HTML tag dir attribute for value of "rtl". This will anchor the pop over to rightBottom / and display the arrow on the rightTop instead of leftBottom / leftTop.
