HandleResponses updated for use with optimized campaign
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
After updating from Pega 8.4, responses were not processed in the pxHandleResponses Data flow if the "pyCampaignOptimization" flag was set to true. This was traced to a missed use case for an optimized campaign, and has been resolved by modifying the condition in HandleResponses.

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.3
The start time of the dataflow was displayed in GMT instead of the operator locale timezone. This has been corrected.

DataSet preview will use date instead of datetime
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.3
While using a DataSet preview functionality, the date appeared as reduced by one day. This has been resolved by parsing date as 'date' instead of 'datetime' to avoid issues with timezone interactions.

Updated report handling for simulations using database output
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
When running a simulation with a database table as the output destination, the pxObjClass property was not populating with a value in the results. This caused sub-reports to not be populated with data. Investigation showed that issue happened when the simulation output destination database table was inferred as an external table due to not having an exposed column for pzinskey. To resolve this, the pxObjClass and pxCreateDateTime properties, which were added to simulation output destination tables for compatibility with Report browser, will not be added to those tables when they are created. Instead, to address compatibility issues of simulation output destination classes with Report browse in the Customer Decision Hub, the pyDefaultSummaryReport has been brought up into the Data-Decision-StrategyExecution-ResultOutput class from the @baseclass.

Value Finder updated for use with external Cassandra nodes
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Attempting to use the Value Finder feature resulted in the error "Running Simulation is not possible because the required services are not available. Contact your System Administrator to enable the data flow and decisioning data store services." Analysis traced this to a check which identifies whether there is more than one internal node available for CDH/ DSS node. Since there were only external nodes available in this scenario and no internal nodes, the method returned false and returned the error when the CDH / VF page was launched. To resolve this, the check has been modified to allow for external Cassandra.

Special characters escaped for use in "is in List" lookups
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
After creating a specific criterion on any proposition using a string property, the "Is In List" operator, and a customer list with one value containing a "$", clicking save or check in resulted in the exception error "Problem invoking function: pega_decisionengine_propositionfilterfua.pzPropositionFilterMethodBody--(PublicAPI,ClipboardPage) java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Illegal group reference at java.util.regex.Matcher.appendReplacement(Matcher.java:857) ". This has been resolved by escaping regular expression control characters in string replacement, which will allow the use of characters such as the $ sign for "is in List" lookups.

Server node cache refresh will use remote execution timeout
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
A campaign was failing due to VBD remote ping timeout with a stacktrace that indicated a StageException. Investigation showed that when the cluster is heavily loaded, calls to the remote execution API could time out. If this occurred when the VBD client was refreshing its cache of VBD server nodes, then the insert failed and the error was propagated up the calling data flow. To resolve this, the system will use the remote execution timeout when refreshing node cache, extend the timeout to 60 seconds, and ensure timeouts are retried during inserts.

Interaction History properly saved when running strategy on a different data flow
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Customized Interaction History properties that had been added to pyInteractionHistoryConfiguration and pyDefaultWorkingSet and saved into the PR_DATA_IH_FACT table were not being saved properly after upgrading from 7.3 to 8.3. This was a missed use case and has been resolved.

Default context check added for saving adaptive model with locked rulesets
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.3
When updating an adaptive model rule in Prediction Studio, the error message "No unlocked Rulesets/Versions found that are valid for this record. Unlock at least one Ruleset/Version that can contain records of this type." appeared when clicking Save. This occurred when a branch was used in the default context of the Prediction Studio settings. Although there was a workaround to use Dev Studio to Save As the adaptive model rule to the required branch, this has been resolved by adding a check for default context and then saving the model there if it is mentioned.

External Input setting available on Strategy Batch Performance Test
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
It was not possible to specify the External Input as part of a strategy when using a Batch Performance test. This has been resolved by updating the pzDisplayTestStrategyContext When condition to "true" the so external input selector is properly displayed.
