New Application wizard disabled or enabled correctly
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
The New Application wizard was disabled with the error message: "Application creation is disabled as the current operator is in invalid state". This was traced to edits made to the Operator page which caused the new app wizard to not be shown due to failed validation. To resolve this, an update has been added which will refresh the operator page on click of the menu so the New Application wizard is disabled or enabled correctly.

Performance improvements for CDH
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
Significant slowness was seen in Customer Decision Hub (CDH) during save-as or check-in/check-out of an offer rule. This has been resolved by passing the current parameter page to the RuleCheckOut activity in pxUpdateRecordInner so that CDH can pass a skipValidate parameter to skip the validation during checkout.

Link-Association-Follow updated

The report definition 'pyGetAssociations' was generating the error "data.internal.rd.reference.InvalidReferenceException InvalidReferenceException .pxLinkedRefTo Cannot use an unexposed property as there is no BLOB column for the class: 'Link-Association-Channel'". This has been resolved by updating pzUnfollowReview to handle Link-Association-Follow, which will prevent these log errors.

Added special character handling for DecisionTable column-label
Resolved in Pega Version 8.8
The label of a decision-table column was being appended to the original decision-table return-value. The column label and comparator were handled differently for columns containing special characters (+, -, *,...), causing the data after the special character to be trimmed and appended to the row output value. This has been resolved by adding handling for special characters so the output and the label are rendered properly.

Enhanced ruleset validation for portal creation
Resolved in Pega Version 8.8
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.

Corrected doubled ampersand passed to message rule
Resolved in Pega Version 8.8
In drop down the ampersand "&" symbol was displayed correctly, but passing that value as a parameter to a message rule used in the page-set-messages method doubled the "&" symbol. This has been resolved.

Database table correctly prevents deletion if there are descendant classes
Resolved in Pega Version 8.8
When deleting a concrete class with descendant classes via an activity (Rule-.Delete), the Rule-Obj-Class.ValidateDeleteInternal activity was throwing an error message indicating the class could not be deleted due to descendant classes. However, the corresponding database table rule was deleted anyway. Investigation showed this was caused by ValidateDeleteInternal not reaching the Obj-Save-Cancel step. This can be fixed by modifying step 11, the post when conditions, to jump to END and set the END label at the Obj-Save-Cancel step instead Exit-Activity, but this issues has been resolved by updating all failure states to run end step. In addition, security has been updated to disallow "Allow invocation from browser".
