Updated AttachmentPreview control for Account Manager Access Group
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
When using the Account Manager Access group as the default and only access group on a profile, attempting to render a PDF on the click of a link did not work as expected. The render-on-click worked as expected when logged in as the Author and the application was switched to Account Manager. This has been resolved by registering the activity pzAppStorageOkToAttachFile in the pzAttachmentPreview control.

Clipboard page handling updated for encrypted values
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
When retrieving data that contained encrypted properties, the clipboard page either did not load, or if it did load the encrypted properties were not listed on the clipboard. This was traced to use of a read only data page, and has been resolved by updating pzRemovePWD with handling for read only pages.

Security updated for @baseclass
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
After update, searching for a baseclass 'when' rule returned no results. Listing the rules under baseclass in App Explorer resulted in the error "Applies To: The Class with key value(s) %40baseclass does not exist". This was an unintended side effect of security updates, and has been resolved by creating an exception path for "@baseclass".

GetFunctionsForLibrary retrieves 10,000 rows
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
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. To resolve this, the default value for "Maximum number of rows to retrieve" in pzGetFunctionsForLibrary has been increased to 10,000.

Performance improvements for save-as
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.5
Performance issues were seen when using save-as for rules such as Declare expression, When rules, activity, etc. This was traced to a very large number of extra database queries that were being executed while building the Declarative Cache. To resolve this, an update has been made so the queries used for the Declarative Cache will only be executed when required.

Removed duplicate alert events
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.5
Duplicate applications were seen in the PDC Event Viewer, e.g. ‘Adviser 01.01’ and ‘Adviser:01.01' - one without a colon and one with a colon. Investigation showed that alert events logged via AsyncServices were being logged as "ApplicationName Version" instead of "ApplicationName:Version", and this has been resolved by updating AsyncServiceBatchTask.java to use the expected application name while logging alert events.

REST authentication settings use fully qualified name for resolution
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.5
The application setting used in REST connectors for authentication was resolving to similarly-named rules instead of matching the exact name of the rule. This has been resolved by enhancing pzGetSettingID to use both parts of the fully qualified name (name and category) provided by the pzSettingsORA control when determining which setting from the report to return.

Null value handling added for CBU
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.5
After update, changes made to the Operator record were not reflected and the Actions menu in Operator record did not show all available actions after the Operator was saved. This has been resolved by adding handling for null values passed as String for arguments from cbu.xml for the PegaCBU utility.
