Updated logic for Spinner API used in DateTime control
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When selecting 11, 22, 33, 44 in minutes in the DateTime picker, 11 was rounded off to 10, 22 was rounded off to 20, 33 was rounded off to 30, etc. This was due to the match and increment behavior in the UI Spinner Js API used by the DateTime control, and has been resolved by modifying the logic used to calculate the nextIndex in the keydownHandler API under ui_spinner.js .

Setting added to customize using blank Map values
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
After upgrade 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".

Withdraw task notification uses correct email sender
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When withdrawing a Task, the withdraw email was sent from the default email box instead of the expected Application default email box. This was traced to the 'pyTaskDeleted' (notification name for withdraw task) value not being present, which meant the system fell back to the task 'pyTaskAssigned' notification name. To resolve this, an update has been made to have pyIsPulseNotificationDefinition return true for a pyTaskDeleted notification.

Resolved importing PublicFormat file using RuleFromFile Wizard
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.3
When attempting to create a flow from a Public Format XML file using the Rule From File Wizard, the following error was seen: "Problem invoking function: pega_procom_harvest.performXSLT--(String,String,boolean,HashStringMap)". This was caused by a mapping failure related to the pyComments property in baseclass pega social functionality, and has been resolved with the addition of a new page group property pyComments of type "Data-MO-Annotation-Comment" which applies to "Embed-Rule-Obj-Flow-ProcessModel".

Corrected PDF generation when an image filename has special characters
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.3
When using Export to PDF with an uploaded image file that had special characters in its name, the images were missing from the generated document. This has been corrected by updating the decoding of the URL to not remove the checksum when using RTE.

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.

Documentation updated for accents and special characters used in search
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
The "Pega search API" article has been updated to reflect that the search functionality in Pega Platform does not match accented words with unaccented. For example, searching for santé and sante will retrieve different results. In addition, Domain Specific Language (DSL) includes special characters for use when searching, for example '-', '_', '!', '@'. However, the system retrieves various results depending on the way the special characters are used in the search query. If the query contains special characters that are not escaped, the system may retrieve incorrect results. For example, not escaping the slash mark in the 25/02 query may cause the system to ignore the special character.

Report title displayed properly when prompting for filter changes
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.3
Launching a report from the report browser showed a blank for "Report tab title" if the option "Prompt for filter changes before displaying report" was checked. This has been corrected by adding pzRDWinTitle to the harness Code-Pega-List.pzRRDisplaySection so it will display the name of the report when prompting for filter changes.

Check added to avoid unnecessary show-harness when offline
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.3
After upgrade, clicking on the Optional Process from the Action menu resulted in the error "The Operation completed successfully, but returned no content". This was traced to an unnecessary call to a show-harness step when offline, and has been resolved with the addition of a 'when' check.

Local UUID cache will be updated when merge event is detected
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
Cluster-related issues were seen in multiple production clusters. For some nodes in the cluster the Cluster Management screen showed all expected nodes with valid Node IDs displayed, and on other nodes the Cluster Management screen showed the node ID of itself, SERVER@localhost:5701. On an impacted node displaying the wrong ID, the Node Information landing page did not work and displayed the error "Unable to execute job on ." Multiple advanced agents running on nodes in the affected clusters, both with correct and incorrect IDs, also failed with a similar error "Unable to execute job on <node's job id>". This was traced to a merge performed after a split brain. To resolve this, the code has been updated to handle merge events: when the node UUID is changed as part of a split brain recovery, the local UUID cache will be updated when the merge event is detected.
