Resolved non-template harness stale reference for navigation menu
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
Post upgrade, the navigation menu was initially present but disappeared on click of a menu item. This issue was seen only when the harness was non-template and SPA was enabled on the dynamic container: when launch harness was done on the same harness, change tracker created a new thread object but the client cache was holding the stale reference. When using template harness, mergeBigData adds all the new details into the stale object, preventing this issue. To resolve this issue for non-template harnesses, initChangeTracker in pzpega_ui_doc_lifecycle file has been updated.

Resolved classcast exception with assembled HTML controls
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
A classcast exception was being generated on login. Investigation showed the Static Assembler was unexpectedly using a different Assembler to assemble the Html control rule. Standard behavior is that StreamBuilderAssembler assembles controls of type StreamBuilder and ControlAssemblerForVTable assembles controls of type ControlBuilder. In this case, static assembly for HTML controls using VTable was performed using StreamBuilderAssembler, causing a classcast exception when using VTable because the instance of the generated.html class was incorrectly inheriting from StreamBuilder (the parent class of ControlBuilder) instead of ControlBuilder which is the specified interface in the generated.html Java code. This has been resolved by updating the system to skip rules of type 'Rule-HTML-Property'(control) during Static Assembly.

Localization improved for ToolTips
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
Attempting to use the Field value to localize the tooltip for Hour and Minute resulted in the time being displayed as "tooltip: Hour". Support has been added for localizing these fields using pyTooltip. In addition, an issue with the tooltip still being displayed after switching helper text to None and saving (without manually clearing the existing text) has been resolved with an update that will clear the tooltip value when helper text is selected as 'None'.

isFutureDate edit validation fires correctly
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
The date value entered was not getting converted to the user-specific time zone and resulted in an incorrect value for validation when using isFutureDate. This has been resolved by adding an update which will convert the date value to the specific time zone before comparing it with the current date.

Updated bulk action audit history logic and security
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
After update, using the standard bulk action feature did not record an audit history entry for the SLA action on a case. This was traced to changes made around authorization for opening worklists when using pzBulkProcessItem that limited the audit history to reassign, transfer or transfer assignment, and has been resolved by updating the login the Work-pzBulkProcessItem activity. In addition, the Require authentication to run checkbox has been enabled on the Security tab of the activity, and the Allow invocation from browser checkbox has been disabled.

Updated COUNT logic for strategies with ssavm set to true
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
An error was seen when attempting to save a strategy after setting ssavm to true, indicating an issue in the “COUNT” method in Group By shape. Since the source field is not used and does not need to be evaluated here, the system has been updated to ignore the source field if the operation is COUNT.

Corrected iosVersion handling for getDirections
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
When opening the map function in the iPhone app, it first navigated to Google maps but clicking on 'get directions' opened Apple maps. This was traced to pzpega_control_actions_getDirections. When using the getMapURL function the value being assigned for iosVersion dictates the behavior: If the iosVersion is greater than 8 it opens Google maps, else Apple maps. However, an error caused the value to be sent as string instead of integer, causing the iosVersion check to fail. This has been corrected.

Handling added for JSON with top level array
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
When using serialize mode in a JSON data transform where the Top element structure was Array and the “For JSON only” relation was selected for relation mode, the result had an incorrect JSON structure. In order to support this configuration, generatePropertyAsJSON has been amended to set isTopLevelPageList to true in instances where automap is off, the top level is an array, and the JSON context is updated within the first step. In addition, generatePageAsJSON has been updated to check this flag when processing mappings in order to ensure these context changes are processed, and updates have been made to generatePropertyAsJSON to ensure that the context is popped when appropriate.

Refresh works for nested lists
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
After creating Pagelist A with another Pagelist within (B), a section was created with a repeating dynamic layout to display Pagelist A and a button was added with action set to refresh this section. In the embedded section of the repeating dynamic layout, a nested repeating dynamic layout was created for Pagelist B and a button was set to refresh this section. When using this configuration, the refresh was returning the actionID for Pagelist A regardless of which button was used. To resolve this, an update has been made which will iterate over the stack and append the individual indexes to the encoded value in the pzAPICreateJsonForField function.

API added to minimize calls to set parameters in datapage
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
Differences were seen after upgrade when using a datapage associated with a property which was application-specific and that had Data Access for the property defined as “Copy data from a data page" with parameters whose value was set by an activity from the associated property of type single page. Prior to upgrade, only one call was seen to set the values for the parameters in datapage, but post-upgrade multiple calls were used to set the values to these parameters. This was traced to logic used for extraction and invoking the perform, and has been resolved by adding the new API 'DeclarativeAction.shouldExtractWatchedProperties'. It will return true or false, depending whether the extraction of watch properties is needed or not.
