Added handling for defer-loaded dynamic layout inside a flowaction grid
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.3
When using a grid configured to show the details in expandable rows and the inner grid was a work bound grid, trying to expand the rows only showed the "Loading ..." message and never completed. This was traced to a missing use case for having a defer-loaded Dynamic layout which wraps the grid inside a flowaction embeddedpane grid, and has been corrected.

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.

Support added for allow list for LaxRedirectStrategy
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
When using Connect REST with POST to access a third-party service deployed on multiple nodes, the load balancer sometimes replied 302 with Location header. The ability to allow the REST connector to automatically follow these redirects even in the case of POST messages is supported by Apache http client via LaxRedirectStrategy, but REST Connectors need both rule and engine enhancements to allow for this. To support this use, an allow list has been implemted for hostnames. This will allow the connector to be configured to follow the LaxRedirectStrategy only when the hostname of the redirect location is in the allow list. The default will continue to block the redirect.

pxCoveredCountOpen value decrease corrected
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.3
When a flow reached the resolved stage (Resolved-Withdrawn), pxCoveredCountOpen was reducing the count by 2 instead of 1, eventually causing the value to go negative and prevent any further work objects from being marked as Withdrawn. Investigation showed the "Update status" activity was being called twice due to the Temporary WorkPage used to delete assignments persisting and appearing as a duplicate pyWorkPage. This caused an issue when using findPage by pzInsKey. To correct this, the "pxDeleteAssignmentsForWork" activity for Step-15 has been modified to explicitly remove the temporary WorkPage after the assignment is deleted.

Updated handling for ID value change during REST connection creation
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
When using the REST Connector Wizard to create a connector, if the ID was changed on the 4th (last) step of the Wizard and then the Create button was pressed, the screen would freeze and a display a javascript error. Investigation showed that when the ID was changed on the screen, the new value was not updated properly and subsequent function calls threw errors. This has been resolved.

"Today" will set date-time in the respective operator timezone
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
When a Date was entered using the "Today" option in Datetime control, the Date set used the system date and Time was taken from Timezone specified for the operator. This created issues for a scenario such as operator being set to America/New_York/ EST while the application was accessed in another country such as India or Japan. This was a missed use case and has been resolved by adding code to get the date-time in the respective operator timezone and setting it on click of date-time controls.

Spell Check flag removed from Preview and Public Articles
Resolved in Pega Version 8.8
If the spell check button was used when editing a Knowledge Management article, flagged words that were not corrected or set to be ignored continued to display the red flag even when previewing or when the article was being viewed from a public help site. In order to support not showing the flags while previewing or viewing from the Knowledge Management help site, an addition has been made to sanitize underlined words before save or submit.

DSS introduced to control DSM clipboard page serialization
Resolved in Pega Version 8.8
When using a Kafka dataset to consume a message from an external topic that had an attribute name with a special character contained in a page list structure, using a JSON data transform for the mapping in a realtime dataflow resulted in the error "Exception in stage: KafkaDS; LegacyModelAspectInvokableRuleContainer.invoke-Exception encountered a :java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException." To resolve this, a new DSS dataset/CLASS_NAME/DATASET_NAME/JSONDataTransform/deserialization/useDSMPage has been introduced. When the value is set to true, the process will follow the previous behavior of DSM clipboard pages being generated when Kafka records are deserialized using JSON data transform. When the value is set to false, the JSON data transform will generate regular clipboard pages and convert them later to DSM clipboard pages. This would avoid errors when a JSON data transform calls methods from the Clipboard API that are not implemented by DSM pages. This DSS is set per data set instance. CLASS_NAME and DATASET_NAME are placeholders which should be replaced by data set's pyClassName and pyPurpose property values. In addition, a similar DSS, dataset/CLASS_NAME/DATASET_NAME/JSONDataTransform/serialization/useDSMPage, has been introduced for serialization.

Custom client-side future date validation works on mobile
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
After developing a custom client side validation based on documented examples that used jquery to locate two input fields (date pickers) and added an on-change function, the validation worked as expected on the desktop but gave a validation error for any future date when using the mobile app or browser. This was an issue with the name attribute handling on mobile, and has been resolved.
