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)

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.

Decision table null input handling updated for backward compatibility
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
After upgrade, any null values as inputs in the decision tables were skipped if "Allow Missing properties" was not checked. This behavior was different from previous versions. In order to improve backward compatibility, the new function pxEvaluateDecisionTable has been added which has an additional parameter to set AllowMissingProperties, and the older function logic has been modified to take the parameter value from the parameter page.

Support added for connect-SOAP run in parallel mode
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When connect-SOAP was configured to use the “run in parallel” mode, application settings derived through a datapage had incorrect values. While running the connect-SOAP through an activity, all the values were derived incorrectly. This has been resolved by adding a synchronization enhancement to support parallel run connect.SOAP.

Setting added to customize using blank Map values
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
After upgrade to from Pega 6 to Pega 8 some of the Map Value rules were not working. This was due to the handling for blank default values which was changed in Pega 7. In order to support backwards compatibility, a new 'when' rule has been added which allows customizing whether or not blank values are allowed for the Map value default columns. pyAllowBlankValues will default to "false".

Improvements for Offer Eligibility rules loading time
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
After opening the Proposition filter/Action rule and clicking on Add Criteria, the pxAnyPicker drop down load was taking an excessive amount of time. Performance improvements have been made by adding a precondition at step 2 to avoid data page refresh for specific scenarios when it is not required.

SmartpromptType classes shown in Rule-Admin-Skill
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Some class instances were not showing in SmartpromptType list. This was traced to the activity LookUpList, which is called from Rule- class in Rule-Admin-Skill, using pyClassName as one of the filter criteria in Java Step1. Therefore Rule-Admin-Skills did not show in SmartpromptType list. This has been resolved by overriding LookUpList for Rule-Admin-Skill class so it will not consider pyClassName as a filter criteria.

Regex corrected for USZipCodeExtended validation
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Edit Validate - USZipCodeExtended was not working as expected. Instead of validating 5 numbers followed by 4 numbers, it was validating for 5 numbers followed by 5 numbers. This has been corrected.
