Create Survey routes case correctly
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
The Create Survey utility was not routing the case to the user who initiated the case, but instead was routing it to the user who checked-in the case. This was traced to an error related to pxRequestor.pxUserIdentifier in the data transform pzpopulate survey params which is called when the survey utility is used, and has been corrected.

Enhanced handling for screen/non-screen/screen flow movement
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
When using a screen flow where the last screen had a link to launch a section, a cancel button in the section that was configured with a data transform and a 'Finish Assignment' intended to move back to the screen flow did not work as expected. If a browser refresh was performed and then the cancel button was clicked, the Finish Assignment / return was triggered as expected. Because this configuration navigated to a non-screen flow, the attachOnLoad function did not load the parameter needed for maintaining error messages. This has been resolved by updating the navigation to handle this use.

Removed unnecessary decoding from GetDropdownOptions
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
When using a dropdown sourced by a data page with parameters in the section, passing multiple values as the parameters of the data page resulted in the error "pzGetDropdownOptions:Invalid JSON Stream for data page params" and the parameter values were not resolving at runtime. This was traced to unnecessary decoding in the process, and has been resolved.

Added check for sending email attachments with XML data
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.3
When using SendEmailNotification to send an email with an attachment, the attachment was added but had no content when the email was received. In this case, if the property pyRemoveXML was true and if the email attachment content had XML data and did not contain a <pagedata tag, then the removeXML() method was returning "" as the email attachment content. This has been fixed by adding a check so if the property pyRemoveXML is true and if the email attachment content has XML data and doesn't contain the <pagedata tag, then it will return the original content itself.

Formulas corrected for GenerateExcelFile
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
After upgrade, using pxGenerateExcelFile to generate an Excel file resulted in some formulas and values not displaying. This scenario used an Excel template with two tabs - one showing direct page values and the second displaying the calculated values of first sheet. In the exported file, the formula was not getting evaluated unless and until the cell was activated with the enter key. This is a known limitation, and a temporary solution has been made here to add parameters that force the formula evaluations on the saved Excel document when editing is turned on. A more complete solution will be included in the next patch release.

Updated handling for MT query of pr_data_admin table
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
When using a multi-tenant environment with Oracle, as the number of users in the environment increased, the number of queries of the pr_data_admin table "WHERE pyEnableAuthService" increased exponentially and causes system slowness. This was traced to missed handling for the @ character in the authentication service cache while requesting, and has been resolved by updating authservicecache.java.

Updated CSS selector to ensure all buttons are visible during data flow
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.3
The restart/refresh buttons were not visible when running the data flow, and if some records were processed, they were not displayed in the result window. This was traced to the test selector not being accessible for all the access groups, preventing the progress page from being refreshed. The system has been updated to use a normal CSS selector to resolve this issues.

Changelog cleanup added for de-optimized properties
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
Unwanted optimization was automatically added to properties for the Application-Work-Casetype class created using the wizard in the App Studio. Attempts to remove the optimization did not work: the property advance tab was showing the optimized classes details even after deleting and recreating the property. When a property is optimized the system adds entries to pr_changelog for the list of classes it has optimized. When the property was deleted, the pr_changelog was not cleared. This was a missed usecase, and has been resolved by overriding the Cleanup activity at Rule-Obj-Property class to delete the pr_changelog entry associated with that if it is present.

Made mobile file attachment sync more robust for low bandwidth situation
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.3
When using the iOS Mobile Offline application with 'make attachments available offline' checked, low bandwidth on the network could cause the attachment sync to fail and cause the queue to get stuck. To prevent that, rather than return a Socket Timeout the system will return an error code that will cause the file upload to continue instead of rejecting it.

CSRF and Browser fingerprint tokens added for testing custom scripts
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
After upgrade, the test window appeared blank when attempting to test Decision Table rules. This was traced to there not being CSRF token and Browser fingerprint handling in the custom script used to show a prompt screen to the user. Because the CSRF token validation was missing, the request failed. To resolve this, CSRF and Browser fingerprint tokens have been added as hidden fields.
