Cancel button on embedded GridRow cancels single action
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When a modal Flow Action contained a Table with the Row operations configured as Master-detail and the Detail flow action was specified, if a validation error defined in a Validation rule (i.e. other than required field error) occurred while entering details for one of the rows and the Cancel button for that row was clicked, the entire action was cancelled and the modal window was closed without saving anything. This has been resolved by updating the system to prevent the modal closure if a row is added and then cancelled.

DSS added to skip 'Has Purge Happened Since Startup'
Resolved in Pega Version 8.8
The Purge Agent did not finish execution, exiting with the error "skipping purge because HasPurgeHappenedSinceStartup == false". This was traced to the local site policy of restarting their nodes every week, which was not aligned with the system default purge policy. To address this, a new DSS "skipHasPurgeHappenedSinceStartupCheck" has been added to the Pega-RulesEngine ruleset. When set to true, the check for 'Has Purge Happened Since Startup' will be skipped.

Handling added for Pagelist Reference Property in LegacyPageAdapter getMode API
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
Post upgrade, a "Component Stack Mismatch" error appeared while opening a work item containing an embedded section that used a Data Page D_WorkApprovalCase input parameter as the Page Context. This was traced to an exception thrown by the getMode() API invoked on an auto-populate property because the property was in a read-only data page. By default, read-only data pages are light weight clipboard pages, but auto-populating properties on light weight clipboard pages was not handled via the failsafe page in the getMode() API. This has been fixed by adding handling to the getMode API of LegacyPageAdapter for properties not supported by redux ( eg: reference, autopopulate properties etc).

Hotfix hashmap cleanup improved
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
A DL installation failed with an out-of-memory error. It was observed that many CacheEntry(VersionedJdbcJarRwader.java) hashmaps were being created to store the details for each hotfix but that were then never cleared. This has been resolved by adding the finally block in CodeImportProcessImpl.java class to call the shutdown method for proper cleanup. In addition, the default command line utility (prpcUtils) has been updated to use JVM settings of Xmx 4GB and capture a heap dump if an out-of-memory error is encountered. The auto-generated prconfig.xml has also been updated to leverage its minimal startup setting which will avoid loading the conclusion cache into memory.

Checks added for empty/missing properties during rule restoration
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
After making a change to the harness and checking it in, restoring an old version of the harness from history resulted in the old version of the rule displaying a missing or corrupted button area. The was caused by the rules revision history not keeping empty / default properties in the DB, so when the rule is restored those properties were not populated in the resulting XML. To resolve this, empty checks and default values have been added for any non-existent properties in pzpega_ud_gridlayout_model JS and pzpega_ud_gridlayout_structure JS.

Links to specifications persist appropriately
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When linking Rules to Specifications, check-ins of some unrelated rules deleted the link. Investigation showed the deletion happened in the pzHandleLinksPostCheckIn activity, and was caused by an empty parameter page name that caused pcInsKey to not have a value, so all links returned by "Obj-Browse" were later deleted. To resolve this, an update has been made to insure the "Pass current parameter page" option in step 2 of the Connect REST PostCheckIn activity is enabled so that the downstream activity pzHandleLinksPostCheckIn behaves as expected.

Performance improvements for stale thread warnings
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Stale thread warnings were causing performance issues during dataflow run execution. Stale thread/slow component warnings are added as part of the dataflow execution when a processing thread takes more than 5 minutes to process a single dataflow record. The stacktrace of the dataflow thread is added as part of the warning for debugging purposes, but in some scenarios the stacktrace can become very large. This has been resolved by removing the stacktraces from the warning, improving the query logic, and adding the run ID to the exception method to assist if there is an error.

Resume Flow will print Flow Action Label in audit history
Resolved in Pega Version 8.8
After calling Resume Flow for processing the assignments, when the Assignment was processed the Flow Action Name was printed on the Audit History instead of Flow Action Label. Investigation showed that in the Complete assignment activity, there was no code in the 'if' loop to set the value of actionLabel. If the value was null, the property set in the next step sets actionLabel to flowActionID and the audit history result is FlowAction ID instead of FlowAction Label. To resolve this, logic has been added in the CompleteAssignment Activity step 5 to set ActionLabel with Flow Action Label.

Resolved report filter section freeze
Resolved in Pega Version 8.8
When opening a report with a count column, changing the order of one of the report columns resulted in the report freezing and requiring the report to be closed and re-run. This was traced to a double filter popup appearing that did not close after the column sorting, which happened if the report definition was configured as a summary with an aggregated column such as "Count” combined with a "Do not display group headings" setting on the Report Viewer tab. To resolve this, a new step has been added in the Activity pzPopulateSortOrder to call the pzCancelFilterLogicChanges activity.
