Invalid date handling added to Legacy Adapters
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Running the Job Scheduler activity failed with the error "not a valid date/time value". Investigation showed this was caused by LegacyPropertyAdapter.isEmpty being returned as true in case of properties having invalid values, and has been resolved by adding handling for an InvalidValueException in LegacyPropertyAdapter and LegacyPageAdapter.

Java Bean import updated to handling differences in Java 7 and Java 8
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
The behavior of the java bean Introspector class is inconsistent across different versions of the JDK when detecting indexed properties built off of java.util.List objects, causing Java Bean import to generate differently in Java 7 and Java 8. This has been resolved by updating PRIndexedPropertyDescriptor to better handle this JDK difference by resolving indexed read and write methods manually using simple reflection.

ServicePackage thread handling improvements
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Work recently done to improve the release of requestor pool threads for the ServicePackage has been further enhanced by adding an explicit status notification to the thread waiting for Data Pages to be loaded in background and added support for the use case of a missing object handler.

ServicePackage threads properly released
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
After completing a system stress test, the requestor pool threads for the ServicePackage were not released. Investigation showed that the threads were waiting for Data Pages to be loaded in the background even though there was no background job corresponding to those data pages in the Async Services pool. This has been resolved by making an update to avoid removing the object handlers when the load-datapage finds that an entry exists with a NOT_STARTED state.

Decision table query performance improvements
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Severe latency was seen after upgrade, and it was not possible to save business rule changes. This was traced to an issue with the decision rule being treated as a custom rule, and has been resolved by inserting a check. In addition, optimization has been added for queries on the pr_sys_decchg table.

Timeout check added to authorization to preserve portal context
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When using SAML SSO Authentication Service with "Use access group timeout" and "Redirect to IDP login after logout" selected and "Force authentication" not selected, manually logging out correctly returned the view to the custom SSO login page but the timeout logout returned the default Pega login page as if SSO was not in use. Analysis showed there was a "Failed to open portal" error after doing some action post timeout, and this was traced to pyPortal page not having a value. Investigation showed this was blank due to the creation of new thread while the requestor state was perceived as unauthenticated because of the timeout. To resolve this, a timeout check has been added to the following: Authorization#setActiveAccessGroup(java.lang.String, boolean, boolean, java.util.Map) BasicApplicationContextImmutableImpl#applyApplicationProperties

Validation on DateTime property working for mobile
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
A mandatory DateTime field with "Allow text entry" set to 'No' was not restricting validation when no value was provided. This was an unintended consequence of recent work done to validate input type date along with input type hidden, and has been reverted.

Ready to process records count correctly displayed
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
After update, the QP's ready to process records count was always shown as zero in the Admin studio QP landing page. This was traced to a missing sListMaxResultCount property in the SQL query for qp-partition retrieval; this has been added, and the default value has been changed from 0 to -1 for proper interpretation of results.
