SAML SSO redirects to correct URL when application and authentication aliases match
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.5
Whenever there was a match in the authentication service alias and the application alias, the application alias was replaced with empty after logoff instead of making the authentication service alias empty. For example, given an authentication service with the alias XYZ ("login with XYZ" alias option) and an application name XYZMyOps, the application alias was being changed from XYZMyOps to appMyOps after logoff. As a result, a blue screen error resulted when clicking on button "login with XYZ" again because it redirected to appMyOps, which didn't exist. This has been resolved by removing authservicealias and modifying AuthServiceAliasHelper.adjustPathIfAuthServiceAliasPresent() to change the method for calculating the pathinfo to string tokenizing.

SAML data pages restored after passivation
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
If login used SAML SSO, resuming the session after passivation resulted in missing or empty data pages when using an SAP integration with Pega Cloud. This was traced to a security change that modified the D_SAMLAssertionDataPage and D_SamlSsoLoginInfo data pages as readonly, causing them to not be passivated under these conditions. To resolve this, the data pages have been made editable so they will be restored as expected. This change also resolves any difficulty with SAML logoff activities in conjunction with SAP and Pega Cloud.

Cannot insert duplicate key in object." This has been resolved by updating the session index handling and adding a catch for the duplicate key exception.

Expand Pane icon responds to enter key when using JAWS
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.6
In an Operator ID rule in Dev Studio, pressing the Enter key when focused on an Access Group expand icon caused the focus on the page to move to the top of the Contact Information frame (top left corner of the Frame). The only way to use the enter key to expand the pane without the refocus was to tab to the arrow icon and then tab a second time before pressing enter. This was traced to the expand caret icon being focussed twice due to the tabIndex for both the TD and SPAN elements holding the caret icon: TD had a focus element for accessibility of the grid, and SPAN had it for the expand pane accessibility. This has been resolved by adding a check condition before adding tabIndex to the first cell in the Grid.

Batching now enabled when using IH Summary shape in substrategies
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
Batching was not being enabled when using IH Summary shape in substrategies. This was traced to the IH_SUMMARY_CACHE field not automatically being passed to sub-strategies, and has been corrected.

Threads will be updated to maintain assembly context when using Static Assembler
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
When running the Static Assembler utility from UI, the assembler process completed successfully but the PegaRULES.log was flooded with the FATAL exception "Usage error - next Executable not based on current". This error was generated from com.pega.pegarules.session.internal.mgmt.Executable constructor, and indicated an issue with the thread context being different from the assembly context. To resolve this, the system has been modified to update the context of thread to what is expected as assembly context.

SurveyPage loads when ruleset is locked
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.6
When the ruleset containing the survey rules was locked D_pzSurveyPage did not load and errors were generated. Investigation showed that if the flow was in a locked version, the PopulateShapeNodesFromFlowData activity did not call EvaluateConnectorState, causing the mapping of the transitions for connectors to fail in the activity MapBranchShapeConnectors. This has been resolved.

Validation correctly triggered when skipping flows
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.5
When using a screen flow which allowed users to navigate the flow freely, validation was not triggered on submission. In addition the server or client side validation was being cleared when the case used optimistic locking. Investigation showed that pzShowConflicts was called for optimistic locking on FinishAssignment, which was clearing off the messages and allowing the flow submission. To correct this, a check has been added to pzShowConflicts to check for defer errors in screenflow while clearing page messages.

Correct datetime target property used
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.5
When using a declare expression for a datetime property to get its value from another datetime property, attempting to change the source datetime later resulted in the error "28-mar-2021 is not a valid date/time value". This occurred when the source datetime property had display readonly formatting, and was traced to the formatted value being sent in the callGetTargets API instead of the selected date value, which caused the function to be returned as empty because there was no target property in the same page before submission. To correct this, a check has been added which will get the value from data-value instead of element.value and will skip callGettragets if the target is empty.

Application selections only announced when visible
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.5
The elements of the application switcher were being announced by the NVDA screen reader even when toggled off, i.e. not visible. The issue was occurring because the focus was remaining at the search bar even after closing the app switcher window, and has been resolved by adding the necessary logic to switch the focus.
