HTML tags escaped in Audit History field values
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.6
The case narrative section was showing case statuses with encoded special characters such as % or ( ), resulting in entries such as "Status changed to Complete &# 40;approved& #41; !@#$ %^& amp;*&# 40;&# 41;_&# 43;.". This has been resolved by updating the PyMemo field from type Text Input to DisplayAsLiteral for case narrative, which matches the setting for case history.

Updated bulk action audit history logic and security
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.6
After update, using the standard bulk action feature did not record an audit history entry for the SLA action on a case. This was traced to changes made around authorization for opening worklists when using pzBulkProcessItem that limited the audit history to reassign, transfer or transfer assignment, and has been resolved by updating the login the Work-pzBulkProcessItem activity. In addition, the Require authentication to run checkbox has been enabled on the Security tab of the activity, and the Allow invocation from browser checkbox has been disabled.

Query split added to handle Oracle expressions limit
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.6
The PXCHECKFLOWDEPENDENCIES activity was throwing the Oracle error message "ORA-01795: maximum number of expressions in a list is 1000" when a case had a very large number of sub-cases, causing a failure in trying to submit additional child cases which sent them into the broken process. This has been resolved by updating the pxCheckFlowDependencies rule to break down the query parameter into batches of 999 so they can be handled by Oracle.

Portal Header persists appropriately
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.6
The Portal header was disappearing immediately after case attachments were opened from the right sidebar and did not reappear even after refresh. This was traced to the absence of pd(event), and has been resolved by adding pd(event) to the onclick attribute in the anchor tag in the attachment UIKit rules.

Additional diagnostic logging added for ElasticSearch startup issues
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.6
The PyIndexerState was stuck in Starting status during node initialization. This issue could occur if the filesystem became hung due to network level issue while scanning entries from /etc/mtab, resulting in a lock which was not released correctly. In order to better determine which node entry in a cluster may be responsible for the hang, an update has been made which will use a temporary virtual environment to repeat the part of the initialization phase responsible and generate additional logs for debugging. To activate this, the PegaSearch.Diagnostics logger must be set in DEBUG mode. This duplicated virtual initialization will not interrupt the normal initialization.

Updated replica management for search clusters
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.6
When using a cluster with two Universal nodes in the cluster, a daily restart process where the second node was not started until the first was fully up resulted in Search initialization failing for the first node while becoming active on the second node. This was traced to the methods used in increasing and decreasing replicas. This has been resolved by revising the handling of ElasticSearch node lifecycle and replicas through a new option "Dindex.searchNodeCount " which includes a specification for the number of expected search nodes. If this option is not present, the old method will be used.

Parameter added to prevent name localization in Dev Studio Reports
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.6
Running the DataTableEditorReport against a customer table translated names that matched localized values, such as "Mr. Block" became "Mr. Sperren" when the locale was set to de_DE even though the property was marked as "Do not localize" in UI Controls in the report definition filter. To resolve this, the parameter 'pyskiplocalization' has been added for use in the RRFilters_logic and while displaying the select Values popup.

Handling updated for INativeSQLBuilder with ABAC enabled
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.6
When trying to import into a data type, the error "Exception occurred during data import pxW-886: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: INativeSQLBuilder not initialized properly" was generated. Investigation showed that when Add or Update was chosen with ABAC enabled during import, a null pointer exception occurred while getting the class definition. This has been handled by adding an extra null condition check.
