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.

Clipboard page fixed for evaluating Rule-Access-When condition
Resolved in Pega Version 7.4
After logging into the application and accessing the work objects from the worklist, a sporadic error would appear when evaluating Rule-Access-When conditions even though the required page being evaluated against has the data populated. Evaluation showed the execution of the Rule-Access-When condition was failing because the incoming primary page was null, and this was traced to an incorrect clipboard page name in AccessEvaluatior.java. This has been fixed.

Handling added for missing div when opening work object
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
In mobile offline app, opening a work object in a specific scenario for the second time resulted in an endless busy indicator. It was not possible to navigate away, and the app had to be closed and reopened to continue. Investigation showed that some app sections had an action that tried to load a harness section where one specific div was missing, and this has been resolved by updating reloadSectionOSCOHandler to handle the missing div in the failure callback. Additionally a console.error() will appear for the missing section.

Admin Studio will consider cluster protocol when returning listener status
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When using a few nodes in standalone mode for BIX extract combined with server nodes using Hazelcast, opening the admin studio pages with service discovery caused an error to be thrown. This was traced to the system writing an entry to pr_sys_statusnodes table as an embedded node whenever a BIX extract was triggered, causing those standalone nodes to be incorrectly considered by the listener landing page. This has been resolved by configuring the system to either return the local member when the cluster protocol is standalone or to return all Hazelcast members if the cluster protocol is Hazelcast.

Added missed use case to Date/datetime formatting
Resolved in Pega Version 7.4
Due to a missed use case, the format type for date/datetime was not sent to the formatter, causing the function Date Format to change on declare expression trigger. This has been corrected by adding formattype in the format tokens of the pzGetControlsFormat RUF along with the added parameter 'formatTypeForFormatting' in the pzFormatControl RUF.

SQL queries modified to use qualified table references
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Portal launch in the development environment was taking an excessive amount of time, as were some standard reports. The PurgeAssemplyDatabaseCache agent activity also generated an error regarding "(internal.cache.RAPurge) ERROR - Purge, unexpected error in removeOldAppCentricCacheData". These issues were traced to SQL queries that contained pr_sys_app_hierarchy_flat without a schema qualifier, and have been resolved by changing to class qualified table references.

Special characters escaped for use in "is in List" lookups
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
After creating a specific criterion on any proposition using a string property, the "Is In List" operator, and a customer list with one value containing a "$", clicking save or check in resulted in the exception error "Problem invoking function: pega_decisionengine_propositionfilterfua.pzPropositionFilterMethodBody--(PublicAPI,ClipboardPage) java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Illegal group reference at java.util.regex.Matcher.appendReplacement(Matcher.java:857) ". This has been resolved by escaping regular expression control characters in string replacement, which will allow the use of characters such as the $ sign for "is in List" lookups.
