Detection added for custom work history tables
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
In order to fully embrace mobile capabilities, columns were added to the work history tables to allow actions to be tracked as a geographical map where each history event is a numbered locale indicator on a map instead of a row of entries. From lat/long it is also possible to call a Google service and get the street address as well. However, this functionality caused some issues post-migration with if there were customized pc_history_work tables mapped to custom classes. To remedy this, a check has been added to only query for pxlatitude/pxlongitude if columns are exposed and shown, and that will detect if the columns aren't present.

Access Role Editor link errors fixed
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
When using IE11 or Google Chrome, clicking on the hyperlink to a privilege associated with a class in Access Role Editor created issues that prevented changes from being made or saved. In some cases, after clicking 'Remove Checked' in the popup dialog, the developer portal loaded in the popup. This was caused by the forms-based role selection not being converted for cross-browser support, and has been fixed.

Added localization formatting for date values (YYYY-MM-DD)

In Sweden, dates are given with a hyphen "-" and not slash "/" as the date separator as per ISO-8601. The SV localization has been changed to follow this style.

Enhanced task queue handling for custom applications
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
In some situations, a custom agent would periodically fall over when processing a large backlog of queued items. This was caused by an exception thrown when placing a task in the queue when it is already present. The system has been updated to better handle this situation and allow agents to continue to execute with the present schedule when a duplicate task is found.

Parameter page update added to improve backwards compatibility for ShowTestLibraryTab
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
An error was observed on the first attempt to modify the 'when' rule "ShowTestLibraryTab" located in PegaProjectMgmt:08-01-01. Analysis showed the when rule (Always, Never) which was called from this rule was not found, which was an issue traced to the Rule-Obj-When function alias parameter name being changed from "strWhen" to "blockName" in the 8.1 release. Subsequent attempts to save the modified rule succeeded due to step#7 in the Embed-UserFunction.pzPopulateDropdownFBUIParameters activity upgrading the pyParameters page with the latest data. To resolve this backwards compatibility issue, the activity step#6 has been modified to upgrade the parameter name for the Rule-Obj-When function alias.

Upcase case shape will fall back to pyWorkCover if multiple pages are present
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
In the Update a Case shape, selecting "A Single Case" and providing .pxCoveredInsKeys(1) for the With ID field worked as expected, but using the same data transform and selecting either "All child cases and descendants" or a specific child case resulted in no update on the children. This was traced to the findPageByHandle API not returning the most appropriate page, which created an issue whenever multiple pages were present in the clipboard. To correct this, the system has been updated to use pyWorkCover if present.

Custom routing configured in early Pega versions will be mapped to custom on upgrade
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
After upgrade, a configured custom routing option under assignment properties was missing in all assignments. This has been resolved by updating pzUpdateRouting with a condition that will take assignments configured in Pega 6 versions and map them to 'custom'.

Resolved importing PublicFormat file using RuleFromFile Wizard
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
When attempting to create a flow from a Public Format XML file using the Rule From File Wizard, the following error was seen: "Problem invoking function: pega_procom_harvest.performXSLT--(String,String,boolean,HashStringMap)". This was caused by a mapping failure related to the pyComments property in baseclass pega social functionality, and has been resolved with the addition of a new page group property pyComments of type "Data-MO-Annotation-Comment" which applies to "Embed-Rule-Obj-Flow-ProcessModel". In addition, a system property set has been added:'System.setProperty("javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory","com.sun.org.apache.xalan.internal.xsltc.trax.TransformerFactoryImpl");' to make the security flags work properly in java step of 'transformPublicFlow' activity

Route to configuration in the approval flow accepts Specific User parameters
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
Route to configuration in the approval flow was not accepting a parameter value/property value when select Specific User option from drop down was chosen. This was traced to unique ID change work done in the 8.2 release: the pzSimpleApproval section has two controls (DropDown for Participant & AutoComplete for Operator) configured on same property pyOperatorToAssign with "run visibility on client configuration), and when the control value was being changed in the AutoComplete control, the empty value of DropDown control was being posted to the clipboard. To correct this, the section Work-.pzSimpleApproval has been modified to remove performing run-visibility conditions at client side. Instead, the system will use the ".pyApproverType Changes" condition to refresh the wrapper DL which contains the routeTo type Operator/WB/Participant property controls.

Added differentiated handling for special symbols based on location in the label string
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
While importing an Excel file into a decision table that used custom functions like@string:notequal or equal, label names like 'AlphaPrefix !=AAA' resulted in the error "invalid expression or reference: line 1:28 extraneous input '"True"' expecting {<EOF>, '-', '+', '=', '*', '/'," " . Investigation found that the problem was with the label of the column not handling the the special characters like (‘!=’, ‘<’ , ‘<=’, ‘>’, ‘>=’ ) present in the middle of the label string: the label and default operator were being updated irrespective of the location of the symbols within the string. To resolve this, DecisionTableWorkBookConverter.java has been modified to set the operator only if the special strings (‘!=’, ‘<’ , ‘<=’, ‘>’, ‘>=’ ) are present at the end of the label.
