Removed unneeded table name calculation
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
After giving short names (less than 30 characters) for "To Table", saving did not produce an error, but an error was thrown during Check In. Investigation showed that while checking in the extract rule, a block of code in the Rule-Utility-Function validateTreeProperties was being executed to recompute the pagelist's table name instead of using the name provided by the user. To resolve this, the Rule-Utility-Function has been modified to not execute this block of code during check-in of the extract rule. The validation will be seen during save if the 'To field' has more than 30 characters.

Configurability added to SLA Timeliness to allow either 0 or NULL for Unqualified records
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
When using a Report Definition where the count (aggregate function) was used for both the WithinSLA and Past Deadline columns, the correct value was not getting displayed. The correct value was displayed when the sum function was used instead of the count function, but clicking 'value' returned all values despite what value was displayed on the screen. This was a behavior change related to performing a drill down action on a report definition. As per the older behavior, drill down relies on a specific value (NULL) to determine whether a record is a candidate to be shown in the drill down report. From 7.2.1 forward, drilldown relies on value 0 instead of NULL to make the average summarize function work properly, which led to a change in behavior when used with other summarize functions like sum and count. To resolve this, SLA Timeliness related RAFs have been modified to conditionally return either 0 or NULL for Unqualified records based on a DASS config.

PRCipher class references updated
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
After upgrade, starting Tomcat resulted in the error "java.lang.ClassCastException: com.pega.platform.securitycore.encryption.internal.CipherDefault cannot be cast to com.pega.pegarules.exec.external.util.crypto.PRCipher"This was traced to an issue with the references for PRCipher: cipher was moved to be a security-core component, but the class structure changes were not fully updated. This has been corrected.

Primary page paramter explictly set to resolve fix/edit Scheduled Tasks issue
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
After upgrade, the top section of report details was getting blanked out when using the Reporting | Components | Scheduled Task to open a report and "update" it to fix issues. This was an unintended side effect of updating the Review harness to display the Perform harness when clicking Update, which was done to correct an earlier issue with UI validations when using the out of the box schedule report functionality. To resolve this, pxScheduleTaskWrapper has been updated to explicitly set the parameter page according to the primary page's values when not in the report browser.

Discard changes dialog now showing for local actions
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
After having modified case data without saving and clicking on a menu entry (left menu, search, ...), the system shows a dialog box to ask the user to confirm it is ok to discard changes. However, this confirmation dialog did not work with local actions, leading users to lose their work without any warning nor any way to step back. This was traced to a difference in the dirty form check, which was not present when launching a local action from a case. An enhancement has now been added to the handleMenuAction js function in pypega_ui_harnessactions.js which will perform a dirty form check with a prompt.

Resolved ruleset save issue for Google Chrome/IE
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
When using particular versions of Google Chrome or Microsoft Internet Explorer, the intermittent error "pyComponentInterfaceClass: <user> does not exist or is not a valid entry for this ruleset and its prerequisites" appeared when attempting to validate an application, and the ruleset could not be saved. This was traced to changes made in the browser around password handling, and has been resolved by explicitly clearing out the pyComponentInterfaceClass if that value is not in use.

Auto-process assignments cleanup improved
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
After configuring auto process with an assignment at the flow end, the perform harness was being presented at the end of the assignment during runtime. This was the result of the newAssign page not being removed as part of the cleanup after auto-processing was done, causing the performB2BAssignmentCheck activity to believe the next assignment existed. This has been resolved by ensuring that auto-process assignments have the newAssignPage removed after the assignment is deleted.

Child case locking error message has correct parameter
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
A locking error message was appearing without the case parameter, showing "Error Message : Could not lock the cover ; has it. Please wait and try again later." This was traced to the cover already being present, causing the step to open the Cover Object to fail. To resolve this, and update has been added to pass the Cover case ID to the field value.

Parent flow next step will take precedence over sub-process
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
ABreadcrumb configured in the screen flow was not displaying at the last assignment when there were multiple embedded sub processes and the last assignment was called in a sub process. This was traced to the parent flow next step information not being passed due to the next step in the sub process being marked as an end shape. To resolve this, the pzFlowSteps7 html control has been updated to pass the parent flow's next step information in this situation.

Null check added for embedded section pyInclude tag
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
When attempting to implement a call to the Pega API casetypes endpoint, the end point /casetypes/{id} returned data for only some of the casetype IDs. For others there was no content in the response and in the logs the error "null at com.pegarules.generated.pzAPICreateJsonForGroup" was seen. This was traced to the use of an old section which did not generate the embedded section pyInclude tag. When the API was called on the same section, it tried to perform an equality check on the variable which gets the pyInclude value, and the null value caused the null pointer exception. This has been resolved by adding a null check to cover pyInclude in an embedded section.
