Improved performance for data flow runs
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
Nodes were intermittently going into safe mode after a service registry heartbeat failure. Investigation found that some of the activities were performing an Obj-Browse that invoked report definition logic to call the database classmap. This has been resolved by modifying the implementation for the initialization and caching of list of classes in a table.

Performance improvements for database queries and archiving
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
In order to improve the performance of database queries, repetitive unnecessary database calls have been removed, archival queries have been simplified, and diagnostic metrics were added. Optional batch requestors have been added to all archival services with their own DSS settings to allow processing more cases in parallel. It is recommended to create 2 additional indexes to help with the archival process. The indexes will be on:pegadata.pr_metadata (pyisparent, pyobjclass, pyarchivestatus) INCLUDE (pyinskey); pegadata.pr_metadata (pyisparent, pyarchivestatus) INCLUDE (pyinskey);

Personalized table sort order limited
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
After implementing a personalized table, the query started adding more 'order by' sorts, causing system impact. This was traced to the pzPopulateSortOrder activity Implementation having different constants assumed for the same purpose (999 in one place and 99999 in another), and has been resolved by updating the logic in step 1 and step 2 to disregard sort orders higher than 999.

Updated authentication for report filter screen
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
If the report filter screen was shown first after clicking on the report link in the report browser, an error is generated for users but not for administrators. This has been resolved by registering the activity and adding a BAC registration section to the prompt filter section.

Secure shared link generation added to scheduled reports
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
When a scheduled report with a link was sent in email, clicking the link displayed an access denied message. To support this use, logic has been added to pytaskoutputprocessor in the pega-scheduledtask-reporting and pega-scheduledtask classes that will create a secure encrypted URL using the PublicLinkURL function.

Corrected blank lines for hidden report filter criteria
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
When the report browser had five filter criteria for a report and only the last two were made visible due to conditions, three blank lines were shown above the visible filters. This was traced to the Report Definition column filter showing the grid row as empty space when "Filter Not Visible in Viewer" was selected, and has been resolved by adding an inline style to PzPromptGrid.

Pull to refresh disabled during case submission
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
Triggering a refresh (swipe down) on mobile while the spinning loading indicator was shown resulted in the error 'This action is not allowed' instead of being able to view the case. This has been resolved by disabling pull to refresh when there is any background network activity in progress.

Page group property passed correctly for complex questions
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
When the Pega Survey Smart shape was used to configure a list of complex set of questions using Question rules and invoked using the Survey shape, the reload system was not passing the subscript value for the Page group property pyQuestionnaire. This caused an Invalid Reference exception and displayed an error pop up for the end user. Investigation traced this to a call to RefreshList to load a section holding pyQuestionnaire(Subscript) page content which was in place as part of a legacy fix but which has since been made unnecessary due to infrastructure changes in the DOM utilities. To resolve this, the ComplexQuestionCheckboxTemplate and pzComplexQuestionCheckBoxTemplateRowDetails section rules have been updated to remove the RefreshList action on checkbox.
