CheckFlowDependencies query performance improved
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
In order to improve performance on very large tables, the pxCheckFlowDependencies activity has been modified. Previously, checking whether a dependency exists retrieved all columns. The updated query will instead return a count.

Re-save case type completes successfully
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
Checking in a case type rule with Stage Rule reference was failing. This was traced to the RuleCheckin activity being called in a nested fashion that caused an inner run to remove the "pyOriginalRecord" page which was needed in the outer run to set the .pyRuleset property (at Step 34), and has been resolved.

Line break handling added for setting required question asterisk
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
If a survey question was formed in multiple sentences, the asterisk marking it as required was not displayed in screen. The asterisk displayed as expected if the question was one sentence. This has been resolved by updating the setMandatoryIconforQP script handle linebreaks and set the required symbol as expected.

Updated FieldLevelAuditing logic for page comparison
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
Optimistic locking was resulting in orphan assignments and the error "Error: Flow Not At Task, Error: Flow Removed". In addition, Get Next Work was causing duplicate Field Level Auditing records. This was traced to a missed use case in the logic used in pxFieldLevelAuditing where previousPage and PrimaryPage are compared to see whether they are equal or not, and has been resolved by adding one more condition to mark previousPage as null when the update date time or commit date time are not updated as part of processing.

WorkLink URL generation updated for security
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
When using a WorkLink in an email, clicking the link and entering credentials on the login screen resulted in a 403 unauthorized error. This was due to a WorkLink URL generation issue caused by the non-encryption of the RedirectAndRun activity call in the URL, and has been resolved.

Check added to prevent duplicate approval by single agent
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
When using a cascading Approvals process supported both by a web access button or by responding via email, a single agent could use both methods and advance a case an additional step as if they were the next approval level. This was due to the system only checking the pzInsKey when processing the approval while the assignment key will be the same for the cascading approvals assignments. This has been resolved by introducing a datetime check to validate if the email approval assignment creation datetime and the one in the database have same value; if yes the approval process will proceed and if not it will exit.

Improved accessibility for Disclosable Documents/attach files/auto selection dropdowns
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4
When using Dragon for accessibility, issues were seen when trying to select different options in the dropdowns related to attaching multiple files. This was caused by the legacy grids being used not supporting this type of accessibility functionality, and has been resolved by updating pzAttachFileDDFileList to use an optimized table instead.

UUID added to iOS direct photo upload to differentiate filename
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4
When "Content Storage" with the option "Store in repository" was enabled on the "Integration" tab in the Application definition, it was not possible to add more that two attachments to a case with an iPhone when directly capturing a photo through the camera app instead of uploading the photo as an attachment using the gallery. When using the default "Store in Pega database", the additional photos could be uploaded directly from an iOS camera without any errors. Investigation showed that when "Store in repository" was enabled, a file name conflict check was done in the repository. Because the iOS camera app saves/uploads every image as "image.jpg", this caused the error when checking for a filename conflict in the repository. This has been resolved by adding code to append a UUID to the attachname when the device is mobile and browser is Apple Safari.
