SR-D48751 · Issue 515538

Pega unit for case type records user inputs

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

When creating a Pega unit for the case type by selecting Actions -> Record test case for Case, the user inputs were not recorded for embedded page properties. This has been corrected.

SR-D52138 · Issue 537507

Property setting corrected for On Join and Exclusion shapes in Expression Builder

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

The properties for the defined page did not appear when using the type-ahead feature to select properties for the On Data Join and Exclusion shapes in Expression Builder. This was an issue related to the property being referenced for setting the context in the expression builder, and has been corrected.

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.

Updated survey refresh API for switching radio buttons

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3

After configuring a picklist with multiple options in a survey framework, it was not possible to select a radio button when toggling between radio buttons on the UI. Investigation showed the values of the radio buttons were not published to Clipboard, causing pyAnswer to be blank. After detaching the webwb_pzsurvey_ui_userscript.js the value was posted correctly and the visible WHEN was working as expected. This has been resolved by updating pzsurvey_ui_userscript to add a timeout on the refresh API call when switching between radio button options.

Improved Page compare for page groups

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3

Field level auditing on embedded properties sporadically did not report the "old" value when a property was modified even though the page was listed as "Modified". This has been resolved by adding logic to the pxComparePages algorithm to treat Lists and Groups differently. Now Page and Value Groups will use pxSubscript as the primary way to detect add and deletes.

INC-179769 · Issue 671022

Document generation new line formatting made consistent

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3

The GenerateWordDocument API and Generate Document shape were not adding new line to a Word document even when Text Area format was used. This was traced to a difference in document generation which varied between adding \n and adding \r\n for new line, causing inconsistent behavior, and has been resolved.

INC-182152 · Issue 667395

Special character handling updated for export MapValue to Excel

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3

The Excel download was failing when the Row/Column definition or column configuration of a map value contained an equals sign (=) or < > brackets inside quotation marks. This has been resolved by adding an update that will evaluate the comparator value at the start of the row condition value, and row condition value and row condition operator will be set separately.

Handling updated for switching between concrete and abstract class types

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3

After configuring a non-templatized table with source as page list, with the page list property sourced to abstract class, a runtime exception was seen when loading the table that indicated "database.BadInputException: Cannot open or save instances of class Data-Orders-OrderDetails--the class might be abstract, or it might have no defined keys, or it might descend from Code-". When a class is created and saved as concrete, there is a checkbox "Automatically generate a unique ID for records of this type" which when checked will set pyAutogeneratedKey to false on the clipboard. If the Class is then later changed to abstract without unchecking the checkbox first, then the BadInputException error will manifest on the table at runtime. Investigation of the Edit Class ruleform found some scenarios where clipboard properties which have previously been set while Class type dropdown is set to Concrete can persist and cause the BadInputException seen when the class is switched to Abstract. This has been resolved.
