CKEditor table-related plugins updated
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.6
In order to successfully put a copy of previous correspondence below the auto email template, gaps had to be explicitly left below the auto email template before pasting the previous email correspondence. Otherwise the auto template disappeared and left only the previous email correspondence on the auto template. This was traced to issues with the CKEditor plugins, and has been resolved by updating to the latest table plugins from CKEditor (table,tabletools,showborders,tableresize,tableselection).

Stories Word doc includes uploaded images
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.6
When trying to generate a Word document for the user stories by going to the Options menu and using the 'Document' option, there were images within the user story description that were not rendered in the Word document. Investigation showed that images would show up in the Word document if the images were dragged and dropped or copied and pasted into the description field instead of using the image uploader button. This was because the image was stored in a separate folder when the upload button was used and only a link to the attachment location was added to the description vs using copy/paste or drag and drop directly stored the attachment content in the description. An enhancement has been added to handle the upload use case so the images will appear in the Word document.

InitializeRequestor utilized to prevent Inconsistent authentication requestor state
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.6
A 'resource not found' issue was causing an inconsistent Robot status. This was traced to an improperly configured application where the service authentication requestor was left in a wrong state but was being returned to the pool. To prevent the issue of requestors being in an odd state if they try to authenticate and an error occurs, the system has been updated to now always call initializeRequestor, not just for Authenticated cases.

Hardcoded prweb reference removed from the REST connector to enhance flexibility
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.6
The DASS for pegarobotics/RobotManagerHostDomain allows specifying the instance where Robot Manager is hosted. Previously, connect-REST pzInvokeRoboticAutomation contained a reference to the resource path {RobotManagerHostDomain}/prweb/PRRestService/robotics/v1/automations which forced the use of prweb. In order to add flexibility, the hardcoded prweb reference has been removed from the REST connector resource path, and the pegarobotics/RobotManagerHostDomain) DASS's default value has been updated to include 'prweb' in it. Local sites should update DASS accordingly to point to an updated URL with prweb if needed.

Improvements made to Excel data import handling for decision tables
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.6
On importing an Excel file into a decision table, the values modified in Excel were getting updated even though the rule was checked in after the import. Investigation showed that the API which handled converting the imported Excel file for use on the clipboard was defaulting to save actions if the rule was not checked out or in private edit before the import. In order to prevent future issues, the following changes have been made in this area: The "Import" button will be enabled only after clicking on checkout button, and discarding the checkout will also discard any imported values. When checkout for the rule set is disabled, only the save option will be displayed on the decision table. When the import button is visible and enabled, imported values will not be preserved if Actions -> Refresh is used before saving. When rulesets are disabled, the decision table can only be private edited and at that time the save and import buttons will be visible. When private edit is visible, the import button will be in a disabled state.

Exception handling added for upgraded custom decision tables
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.6
After upgrade, the status fail message "There has been an issue; please consult your system administrator" appeared with a blue screen in the Run window when attempting to run a Decision table from Actions-> Run option. This impacted the ability to create unit test cases. Analysis showed the issue occurred for any decision table where "Evaluate All rows" was enabled and list properties were used in Actions if there was no value for the list property after the execution of decision table. This was traced to a NullPointerException in a RunRuleFromPage activity in a customized in PUnit ruleset, and was caused by having list properties in the actions of a decision table that had not been populated during rule execution. Exception handling has been added to resolve this.

Handling added for null sort order in file import metadata
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.6
A NullPointerException was seen while fetching the sort order of indexes during a file import. This was caused by a null being returned for an index that did not have the sort order in the metadata, and has been resolved by adding a null check; if the metadata of the index returns "null" as sort order, then the order will be set to "A".
