Enhanced ruleset validation for portal creation
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4
Attempting to create a new portal (web channel) from the app studio using the Creation Wizard with "Branch development preferences" enabled resulted in the error message "No valid rulesets in application preferences". Investigation showed this occurred due to CPM-Portal being specified in the application as the UI class: when attempting to create the portal, the system was evaluating the class against ruleset candidates. The class was not visible to the rulesets in the stack and thus the portal could not be created. This has been resolved by adding validation on UI pages, Int and Data classes in the application to ensure that they exist in user rulesets, and by adding an allowance for classes to exist only in branched rulesets and not the base ruleset during check if the ruleset is present in application stack.

BAC updated for delegated circumstanced decision table rule
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4
An unregistered request error was encountered while launching the DelegatedRulesPage harness when pyBlockUnregisteredRequests >=1. This was traced to a delegated circumstanced decision table rule which caused a request error for the @baseclass.pzLookupCircumList activity, and has been resolved by updating the BAC handling for this activity.

Empty check added to OpenRuleAdvanced
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4
A blank screen was displayed when attempting to open a requirement set rule in Dev Studio. This was a missed use case while updating the OpenRuleAdvanced control to handle BAC compatibility, and has been resolved by adding an empty check in addition to the existing null check along with an 'if' condition to check for pyActivity input.

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4
Some functions were missing from the expression builder browser and search results when pyShowInternalLibrary was set to true for including internal functions in the results.

Corrected null values being set to 0 in GenerateExcel
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4
The pxGenerateExcelFile activity was loading $0.00 in place of a null value for decimal columns. This has been resolved by updating the logic for GenerateExcel.java to skip double properties default value for non-existent clipboard props and extend the same fix to the integer class. Safety checks have been added before setting cell type to check if property exists, and handling has been added for a specific exception instead of generic exception for both decimal and integer use cases.

Simplified default reference time calculations
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4
After a job scheduler was configured to run at Start time = 21:00:00 for Time zone = Europe/London, the scheduler determined 20:00:00 as the next start time. This was due to the calculation for the next start time using the time zone offset calculation pattern for the date and time stored in System-Runtime-Context.pxCreateDateTime, which had difficulty with changes to the time zone definition implemented in the time between the given date and today (meaning the current time) such as daylight savings time. To resolve this, the default reference time from System Runtime Context will be 'now' instead of Date(0).

TextMask_Encrypted rule added for use with Oracle
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4
When a property was being encrypted by propertyEncrypt access control policy and masked by propertyRead access control policy, it showed a "@@getMaskedValueOfText" error. This has been resolved with the addition of a new rule pxTextMask_Encrypted for Oracle product type which will remove extra spaces from the SOURCE string to handle ORACLE specific usecases.
