SR-D65401 · Issue 528958

Parameter page retained after strategy test case checkout

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

After a test case for a Strategy was created, it passed in the initial run but then failed after checkout of the test case. This was traced to an issue with the activity pzCheckAndUpdateParameters for strategy, and has been corrected.

Tracer issues resolved for Google Chrome broswer

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

Tracer was running in the background even after the tracer window was closed. Attempting to run a Tracer in this condition resulted in an error indicating the Tracer was being run by another operator and should be restarted, and in the Dev environment, attempting to start a Tracer once it was closed resulted in the message "Cannot launch multiple Tracer sessions for a requestor." Investigation found that the Tracer session was not being closed when the tracer window was closed because the browser specific method intended to do so was not being called. This was found to be an issue caused by the Google Chrome browser changing the signature of the method, and has been resolved by updating the method name in the TraceMain HTML rule.

Check added for lock expiration when using Save for Default locking

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

With the default case locking policy, during the process from creating a Case Object to Submit it was possible for multiple users to edit and save the same work object if the lock expired for the original user. No warnings appeared. To resolve this, handling has been added for a lock expiration scenario: previously, Save for Default locking was not considered. This has now been updated with a check that will evaluate whether or not the lock is gone before attempting to save.

Corrected parameter being encrypted during change portal configuration

Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5

After configuring a changePortalLayout control using .pyDescription as property, trying to switch the portal was throwing a error page. The same configuration worked in earlier platform versions. This was traced to recent updates where the activity parameter ended up being encrypted along with the activity name, and has been resolved by removing the parameter from encryption input and adding it to encryption output.

Discard changes dialog now showing for local actions

Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5

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.

SR-D40662 · Issue 511397

OpenRuleAdvanced updated

Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5

After upgrade, the Update Page and Append and Map to step in Data transform was generating the error "No Server connection while giving page name to Target and Source". This was traced to the OpenRuleAdvanced_OverLabel control, and investigation showed that a variable was not being resolved when invoking pzEncryptURLActionString. This has been resolved by updating OpenRuleAdvanced and reimplementing two parameters as well as moving the call of these variables to the beginning of the script. Security has also been improved by moving some of the encryption to SafeUrls.

Security improvements for ApplicationInventory and Delete Class

Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5

It was possible to call the activity "ApplicationInventory of class Rule-" by appending the activity name in the URL. To improve security, the ApplicationInventory activity and HTML rule have been removed from the system. In addition, it was possible to access the "delete class" screen and perform actions on top of it by directly appending the stream to the URL. This has been refactored so the screen will be presented only if the pzSystemOperationsAdministrator privilege is in the current access group.

ValueList/Group correctly appears on clipboard

Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5

After upgrade the property of type ValueList/Group was missing from the clipboard. This was traced to an extra 'when' rule applied on the visibility of Layout-2 in final section pzProperty (Pega-Desktop:08-02-01), and has been corrected.

SR-D43776 · Issue 510762

Clipboard ExecuteActivity button updated to get classname

Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5

In Clipboard, clicking the execute activity button did not trigger any action in the backend. Investigation showed that previously the ID attribute for the HTML element used to be same as the property name, and the value of property "pyClassName" was found in the document.getElementById function. Due to work done to provide a feature that generates unique IDs for UI elements (auto generated controls), this must be done through other functions such as document.querySelector to get the value of the property from DOM. The necessary updates have now been made to the javascript function in control pzExecuteActivityButton.

SR-D43783 · Issue 509908

Comments explicitly excluded from generated ruleset under localization

Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5

A generated URL link from Correspondence Fragment (WorkLink) which was saved in Pega-ProCom_ja was incorrect due to an incomplete URL. The ruleset Pega-ProCom_ja is not provided from the platform, but is generated when using localization. In this case, a comment fragment was included in the rule when it was generated, causing the issue. To resolve this, comment handling has been updated to ensure it's not included when generating the rule.
