Fixed button contrast when using accessibility
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
The "Select Values" button in the dialog to edit report filter had a low contrast ratio when accessibility was enabled. This was caused by the unintentional application of the repeat layout CSS to the button, and has been fixed.

Latency resolved for sites with repeated SAML authentication requests
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.9
In an installation using SAML SSO for authentication, repeatedly initiating SAML IDP requests were eventually causing poor system performance. To resolve this, support has been added to disable replay cache handling during SSO login via a DSS.

Removed ORDER BY clause duplication when using MSSQL
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.2
After updating from Pega 8.4 to Pega 8.7, executing the query for the report definition generated the error "SQLServerException: Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'ORDER'." Investigation showed the ORDER BY clause was added to the Native SQL query from the standard dataflow background task and from the native SQL API as well when using an MSSQL database. This has been resolved by adding changes to restrict the order by clause if the SQL query has order by clause already for MSSQL.

Resolved authentication requirements in activity pzSetQueryDefaults for SSO setup
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.9
Code-Security.InitialProfileSetup does not need authentication to run, but during the SSO login it calls Code-Pega-Requestor.pzSetQueryDefaults which was hard-coded to require authentication. This was an error, and the SetQueryDefaults activity no longer requires authentication.

Fixed class pickup when Ticket Urgency is used as reference
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
It was not possible to convert a summary report to a list report if the report had Ticket.Urgency as a reference and Ticket was a single page pointing to data class type property in the work class. This was traced to the drill down picking up the Urgency property from the work class, and has been resolved.

Menu rendering corrected for Attachment Menu controls when using JAWS
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
Previously, the 'add menu' button in the Attachment Menu controls did not respond to the spacebar or enter key if JAWS was active. This was due to a rendering issue with the work flow menu options and has been resolved.

Resolved duplicate portal open when using Microsoft Internet Explorer 11
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.9
When using Microsoft Internet Explorer 11, trying to access the My Group tab in the links 'Manage Operator Schedules and Profiles' was not displaying the screen correctly on click of any operator or workbasket and an extra portal window was opened. This was a browser-specific dynamic container issue where the lack of an explicit type=button declaration was causing a form submit that triggered a main page refresh. That declaration has been added.

Random ID generation changed to use OpenSAML
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
In certain cases, SSO setup with SAML 2.0 failed with the message "Unable to process the SAML WebSSO request: Unable to process SAML2 Authentication". The error was due to the generated ID being sent with a "+" character in it which could not be handled smoothly. To avoid this issue, the system has been changed to use the OpenSAML API instead of using UUID when generating random IDs for all types of WebSSO requests.
