Updated SendEmail shape to remove newline code from the subject line
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
When using the SendEmail shape to send outgoing email, the message contained HTML tags on the subject line that caused it to be split and copied into the email body. This has been resolved by updating PegaEmailClientImpl.prepareMessage() to replace new line characters with spaces in the subject.

Unused DSS compiledExpressions now defaults to false
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.2
After updating from Pega 8.2 to Pega 8.5, executing a test campaign failed with an error in logs. This occurred when running Distribution tests with "Include funnel analysis reports" checked, and was traced to the DSS setting "decision/strategy/ssaVM/compiledExpressions". As this was previously used to toggle a feature which is no longer in use, the default setting for this DSS has now been changed to false to resolve this issue.

Allowed Property Exceptions will be logged as DEBUG
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
The Logger was printing an ERROR message when evaluating a declarative expression. By design, declarative expressions throw a MissingProperty exception if fetched without the source value present, but this can cause excessive logging on a system where this condition is allowed and expected. In order to support flexible use for this scenario, the system has been updated so that the log level will be switched from ERROR to DEBUG when MissingPropertyExceptions are allowed. Logging will remain as ERROR if exceptions are not allowed.

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.2

This has been resolved.

Case creation service activity unauthorized response modified
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
When unauthorized users accessed the URL for creating a case, a blank screen appeared instead of the user being routed to a login screen. This was due to the system returning an HTTP 400 error instead of HTTP 401 response, and was traced to the introduction of an anonymous user type in the authentication activity (Authentication service in the service package). Case creation REST service uses pzCreateCase activity to create the cases, but before introducing the anonymous user type it was exiting from the authentication activity and did not call pzCreateCase. This was traced to the error handling relying on a field value to be in English when instead the site had localized the value, causing a mismatch which did not generate the necessary failed status. To avoid this, the system will now use the new pxStatusFlowSecurity process engine status instead of relying on a text match to determine this error.

Browser compatibility update for setActivityAction
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.2
After update, the Parameter Configuration popup was blank when using Microsoft Internet Explorer. This was traced to security updates that utilized the SafeURL.prototype.setActivityAction containing the startsWith API which is not supported by Internet Explorer. To resolve this, startsWith has been replaced with indexOf for cross-browser compatibility.

Unit testing validation relaxed for external input strategy
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
When trying to test a strategy, the testing transform had to exist in the same ruleset/version as the strategy or it would not resolve. Investigation showed that because the artifacts were in a different ruleset and version build on top of the application that the testing strategy belongs to, validation failed because it was using the platform based ruleset validation. This was a missed use case, and has been resolved by relaxing the validation for external input strategy so it does not take into account the ruleset and version of it. This same change has been applied for referenced data transforms.

Resolved intermittent attachment save error
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.2
A Flow Action error was intermittently being displayed when saving attachments. This was traced to the activity pzUploadAttachmentToDocument-->Step 25 which uses the step page CallExtensionAct which can cause a page null exception if it is not initialized, and has been resolved by adding a Page-New step to initialize the page.

Time value handling updated for IW locale
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.2
The error -"0undefined/0undefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefined is not valid time of day value" appeared when using the 'IW' operator locale and the time field was changed. This was traced to a missed condition check for the IW locale while preparing the selected time value from the dateTimeFormatString, and has been resolved.
