Methods updated to prevent rounding of JSON response decimals
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.4
When using a REST connector for an outside service, precision numbers in the JSON response were being rounded or truncated when parsed for the DataSource page. For example, a JSON message with a value like 6045.900000000000000001 became rounded to 6045.9. This happened in both methods used for fast and non-fast processing, and has been resolved by treating the decimal value as a string and then creating a BigDecimal object out of it to avoid truncation in the fast processing scenario, and by adding mapper.enable(DeserializationFeature.USE_BIG_DECIMAL_FOR_FLOATS); for the non-fast processing scenario.

UseNoCacheHeaders default expiration set to "0"
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.4
When the prconfig/HTTP/UseNoCacheHeaders/default was set true it used the value "Expires: Thu, 01 Dec 1994 16:00:00 GMT". This has been updated to the more commonly used setting "0".

Max number of rows setting properly honored
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
The setting for the maximum number of rows to retrieve was still used in a report definition even when it was disabled. This was traced to the report definition being sourced from a data page and having pagination enabled, and has been resolved by updating the handling for this use case.

Oracle temporary space explicitly freed after writing LOBs
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.4
Oracle temporary space used to write the LOB was not freed up after writing records to Log-Service-File when using OJDBC8 or OJDBC10 versions and the table involved had inline BLOB storage such as small blob tables like Log-service-file (2-4kB blobs). This did not occur when using OJDBC7, but investigation with Oracle could not determine why the older version did not have this issue. This issue has been resolved by explicitly freeing the LOB space with a call to free() / freeTemporary() , a utility for LOB objects that was introduced in JDBC 4.

Orphaned CSS reference removed from DisplayReport harness
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.8
An intermittent invalid CSS error was appearing in the DisplayReport harness when an operation resulted in the regeneration of the harness content. This was traced to a reference to the workform_pyReportingSkin CSS, which was used in old reporting features and is not in use anymore. The reference has been removed to resolve this issue.

Secure shared link generation added to scheduled reports
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When a scheduled report with a link was sent in email, clicking the link displayed an access denied message. To support this use, logic has been added to pytaskoutputprocessor in the pega-scheduledtask-reporting and pega-scheduledtask classes that will create a secure encrypted URL using the PublicLinkURL function.

Removed incorrect role from accessible filter logic
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When using JAWS, tabbing out from Close(X) and setting focus on the "filter by" section resulted in JAWS reading out "use arrows to move". This was not an available action, and has been resolved by removing role="listitem" from the RRFilters_logic.

Bulk actions check in preserves declare expression legacy setting
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When a declare expression was saved in legacy mode with "Whenever used" selected in change tracking, performing a bulk check-in of the rule caused the expression to default to the new forward chaining method. This did not occur when using a direct check-in. Investigation showed this was caused by the check-in page holding a legacy value before the step execution, and has been resolved by adding a pre-save activity before the validation activity that will restore the .pyIsLegacy value from .pyExpressionTypeSelector, if set.

Monthly agents run correctly on non-English locales
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.4
Nodes with non-English locales were not starting when using an Agent with a monthly execution pattern. This was due to incorrect handling of the user locale, and has been resolved.

CreateVersion rule updated for REST Integration Wizard
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When using a JSON response in the Create REST Integration wizard to generate the rules, the wizard displayed a null pointer exception during the final generation. The error pop up message "Generation process has been canceled and all created records have been removed" was displayed on the screen. This was traced to the REST Integration Wizard putting data rules in the wrong ruleset version when the context of both the Integration Layer and the Data Layer were configured to use an existing ruleset and to create a new version of that ruleset, and has been resolved by modifying the pzCreateVersion rule to support this.
