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.

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.

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.

New data objects correctly shown in dropdown

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3

When a new data object was created in App Studio after a data object had already been added to a case type view in the same requestor session, the data page populating the dropdown for the type of field associated with adding the data object was not refreshed. This was traced to the page being requestor level, and has been resolved by updating the page to be thread level.

Updated password hash security

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3

Security around password hashes has been updated.

All functions listed in decision trees

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3

While configuring a decision tree, using the 'Function Allowed' dropdown resulted in the activity Rules-Alias-Function ListAliases throwing the error "Attempting to access a rule with a bad defined-on class: Trying to open rule "COMPARETWOVALUES" of class Rule-Alias-Function, but no defined-on class (pyClassName) was specified" while trying to remove the duplicates. After this error, both the original and the duplicate were removed instead of just the duplicates and an incomplete list was created. This was traced to an issue with the propagation of the pyClassName property to the OpenRuleAdvanced control in the pzAllowedFunctions section as part of passing "OtherKeyValuePairs", and has been resolved by passing the parameter values in the same control using a custom query.

Logic made consistent for design time group condition

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3

An inconsistency was seen between the logic string that appears when switching from "Group ORs" mode to "Use advanced logic" mode at design time, though whichever mode was used at Action check-in was always properly reflected on the generated proposition filter so there was no runtime impact. This design time issue was traced to the property "pyGroupConditionsByOld " being empty: this property is transient so its value will not be saved into database. This property should be updated whenever user changes the Logic operator from the drop-down, and this has been resolved by adding an intermediate property to hold the old group condition value when it changes.
