Corrected Oracle SQLs for checkout/locking
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
Checked Out Specification Rules were not showing as Checked Out on the RuleSet Version. This caused issues when the RuleSet Version was locked based on the assumption that there are no checked out rules. If there was a checked out specification rule, the operator who was working on it could no longer save their changes because the RuleSet Version was locked. This was traced to Oracle not transferring the correct rules column for locking status, and has been resolved with updated triggers for Oracle for both standard and multitenant installs. Contact Pegasystems Global Customer Support for the updated SQL files.

Ampersand(&) handled as text and not parameter for data transforms
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
When passing a parameter to a data transform, if the parameter value contained an ampersand ('&') or certain other non alphanumeric characters, an error was generated (visible in tracer) and the task failed. This was a case where an '&' character was not not handled as literal text, causing the RunActionWrapper to explicitly parse it and create params out of it. There was a local-change solution to directly reference a property value containing the required text value instead of passing it in via a parameter, but the system has been updated to encode ampersand(&) in the file pzpega_ui_events.

Resolved error from empty repeating grid
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
If a repeating grid is opened and no rows are added, the Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 browser was generating an error. When the grid is collapsed in the header its dimension parameters such as offsetHeight etc. are zero, so certain calculations in setHeadersWidth function in ui_grid js would fail and wrong dimension values would be assigned to the grid. Other browsers were failing silently in this situation, while Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 showed errors. To avoid any failure, a check has been added to the setHeadersWidth function in ui_grid js.

Handling updated for redirect URI construction
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2
The redirect URI for an ODIC authorization request to IDP from Pega was truncated, resulting in an incorrect redirect URI. This was traced to the App alias feature was introduced in 8.4 which appends /app/ to the context URL. While constructing OpenID authorization request, the redirect URI was constructed from current login context. In the process of removing the app alias from the URL, a conflict was seen when the server name contained the word "app" in it. To resolve this, the app alias handling has been updated.

Filtering options removed for RepeatGrid columns to ensure consistent results
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
When creating a RepeatGrid with Filtering option enabled, applying the filter on the JUSTIFMicrosoft Internet ExplorerD? field's True/False property was returning variable results in the Application Guardrails "All Warnings" report depending on whether the column filter was set to JUSTIFMicrosoft Internet ExplorerD NO or JUSTIFICATION was left blank (the top choice on the filter dropdown). This was found to be an issue where toggling the filter criteria wasn't filtering out the warnings from rules residing in Pega- rulesets. Until this can be properly addressed within the application's scope, the filtering option on columns has been removed.

Removed pagination from GetBinaryFiles RD to ensure all records are reported
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
When attaching content smart shapes in Standard flow, not all results were shown if pagination was enabled. This was caused by the pagination limiting the returned information to 50 records, and manifested as Binary File path autocomplete not showing all the results, the open rule icon not working even if the binary file rule existed, FileKey only being generated if the file was selected from the autocomplete list, and an Invalid file attachment error if an existing binary file was accessed. In order to resolve this work flow issue, pagination has been disabled in the GetBinaryFiles report definition.

Stale thread issue resolved and logging updated
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
The error "com.pega.pegarules.pub.context.StaleThreadError: Thread has been recycled" was appearing sporadically in the log files. The root cause was traced to the usage daemon, and has been resolved by changing the logic such that while capturing usage data, the system will avoid setting the last thread as processing thread while taking requestor lock. This avoids usage of a stale thread. Additionally, a change was made to avoid repeated logging of a stale thread error while creating a PRException object when exception occurs do occur due to a stale thread.

Sort by ID enhanced to handle custom ID formatting
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
Sort by ID was not working correctly for workbasket/worklist if the workID was in the format String-Number-Number and not in expected format of either String-Number or String-Number-String. The Pega-RULES:compareWorkIDs function responsible for sorting the workID assumed the ID would be in this format because it used pxRefObjectInsName - an internal property that could not be overridden. However, it was possible to create another property in the "Assign-" class of a custom rule set that could be updated with the value of pxRefObjectInsName by iterating it through the list, and then it could be configured in a grid as sortable row which could further be sorted through a custom sort function. An enhancement has been added to the compareWorkIDs function to handle IDs in the String-Number-Number format with additional handling for 2 part vs. 3 part IDs.
