Pick Values modal updated for deprecated list view handling
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
Pick values were not displaying in the menus below Case Management-> Tools -> My Work, including "Work entered by me", "Work by workbasket", and "Work resolved by me recently". This was due to the use of deprecated list views: the pick values modal was failing to show and hide the busy indicator because the indicator now uses jQuery, but list view does not include jQuery. In order to resolve this, the equivalent Report Definition pyEnteredByMe has now been added under the navigation rule : pzProcessAndCaseRulesMainMenu.

pxGenerateExcelFile updated for handling blank dates
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
When using a custom template for exporting to Excel, blank DateTime property column values defaulted to the current date or to 1/1/1970. To resolve this, the pxGenerateExcelFile activity has been updated to ensure that an empty date will be exported as blank and that given dates will appear in the correct datetime format.

Enhanced discrimination for tasks in MyPega spaces
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
When using My Pega for spaces and tasks, using drag and drop to move many cases around quickly resulted in tasks intermittently ending up in a state where they could not be updated further and became unusable. Analysis showed that because the milliseconds part of the update time was rounded, the logic of comparing for value between 0 and 1000 failed when the comparison returned -ve value. To resolve this, the comparison has been modified to !=0 and the 'when' rule pyContinueTaskProcessing has been added as an extension along with the appropriate usage guide to restrict processing. By default, the system will consider task name, description, due date, assignee, and rank properties; if more properties are needed to evaluate, this when rule can help.

Custom attachment category parameter passed to dropdown
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
Attempting to use the out-of-the-box “Attachments control” which was configured at design time to use a custom category where both the custom category and the section class were in the same work class resulted in the attachment category dropdown defaulting to “File” instead of the custom category. Investigation showed that the custom attachment category name configured on the control was missing in one of the pre-processing activities sequence. To resolve this, the activity Work-.pzInitAttachContent and the initAttachmentPage activity have been updated to pass the custom attachment category parameter.

Check added for backwards compatibility with Case Type when rules
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
After upgrade, the When rules present on case type rules (used for skipping stages or showing/hiding stage-wide or case-wide actions) were not executing at run time. This was traced to the introduction of the pySkipOrAllowType property in recent versions, and was only reproducible when the ApplicationRuleset was locked and after upgrade irrespective of whether the condition for when was true or false. To resolve this and enhance backwards capability, a check has been added for the SkipOrAllowType property being empty.

Resolved importing PublicFormat file using RuleFromFile Wizard
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
When attempting to create a flow from a Public Format XML file using the Rule From File Wizard, the following error was seen: "Problem invoking function: pega_procom_harvest.performXSLT--(String,String,boolean,HashStringMap)". This was caused by a mapping failure related to the pyComments property in baseclass pega social functionality, and has been resolved with the addition of a new page group property pyComments of type "Data-MO-Annotation-Comment" which applies to "Embed-Rule-Obj-Flow-ProcessModel".

Escalation updated to ensure assignee is notified of missed deadline
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

Parameter page update added to improve backwards compatibility for ShowTestLibraryTab
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
An error was observed on the first attempt to modify the 'when' rule "ShowTestLibraryTab" located in PegaProjectMgmt:08-01-01. Analysis showed the when rule (Always, Never) which was called from this rule was not found, which was an issue traced to the Rule-Obj-When function alias parameter name being changed from "strWhen" to "blockName" in the 8.1 release. Subsequent attempts to save the modified rule succeeded due to step#7 in the Embed-UserFunction.pzPopulateDropdownFBUIParameters activity upgrading the pyParameters page with the latest data. To resolve this backwards compatibility issue, the activity step#6 has been modified to upgrade the parameter name for the Rule-Obj-When function alias.

Upcase case shape will fall back to pyWorkCover if multiple pages are present
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
In the Update a Case shape, selecting "A Single Case" and providing .pxCoveredInsKeys(1) for the With ID field worked as expected, but using the same data transform and selecting either "All child cases and descendants" or a specific child case resulted in no update on the children. This was traced to the findPageByHandle API not returning the most appropriate page, which created an issue whenever multiple pages were present in the clipboard. To correct this, the system has been updated to use pyWorkCover if present.
