Very long auto-generated index trimmed for use in Report Browser
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
The creation of a new report via the user report browser failed if there was an index with a long name (over 30 characters). The out-of-the-box method automatically generated the prefix, but the Report editor could not handle the very long declare index name and as a result did not consider properties from the embedded pages. To resolve this, pzUpdateAssociation and pzInsertNewReportColumn have been updated to trim the prefix for the declare index to 30 characters and allow for adding a new column to the report. This work does not cover adding a new filter to the report, as that fix would require substantial changes to reporting logic.

Export to Excel cell style control added
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
If a column was formatted with an auto generated numeric control, a new cell style was generated for every row during the export to Excel process. Since there is a limit on the amount of cell styles, once the number of rows in the file was greater than 64000 an error was generated. To resolve this, the system will disable the creation of a new cell style for every instance when an auto-generated numeric control is used.

Added support for imported rules to populate bixreportpage
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
Extract rules were not holding the filter criteria after upgrade while performing save-as (for the first time) of the imported rules from the previous version. Criteria were held when the filters were created in the new version. This was caused by BIX extracts created in earlier releases (7.x) not having bixreportpage included. When an environment was upgraded to 8.x versions, opening an extract required the bixreportpage to be populated with Report Definition metadata including the filters defined in the actual extract. Although the filters from the original extract were converted to filters that are acceptable by ReportDefinition, they were not being added to bixreportpage on opening the extract. To resolve this, the system has been updated to copy the filters back to bixreportpage on opening the extract in the upgraded environment.

Obj-Browse will retrieve more than 50 records
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
After performing multiple skims, a newly added property was not retrieved when an Obj-Browse was performed. In Obj-Browse action, when a class is mapped to an external table and does not contain BLOB column pzpvstream, in a specific case where pxObjClass value is a reference to a parameter, a list of properties mapped to the class explicitly by querying pr4_rule_property table using NativeSQL is fetched. This call by default returns only 50 records: in cases where there are more than 50 properties for an external class, some of the properties from the obj-browse response mapping are therefore missed. To resolve this, the limit of 50 records has been removed from this NativeSQL call.

Corrected Agent schedule time conversion
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
After upgrade, a mismatch between the agent configuration and schedule was seen, causing an agent scheduled at 6PM Europe/London time to execute at 6AM Europe/London instead. Analysis of the Agent schedule rule showed that if the pyStartAmPm property was empty, the internal code miscalculated the AM_PM string as AM. That meant that if an agent was configured with 24 hour clock format and was set to run at 18:00 hrs, it executed at 6AM. The workaround for this issue involved resaving the agent, triggering the data transform pzSetStartAmPm to correct the field pyStartAmPm, but the issue has been corrected by adding handling for the pyStartAmPm == "" corner case.

Added check for duplicate attachment names with S3
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
S3 Storage does not allow duplicate file names, but the AttachContent function was allowing duplicate file attachments. Due to this, the sync was failing to attach on the server and the message was never communicated to the client. This has been resolved by adding a check for duplicate file names when the storage is repository.

Pagination updated to resolve repeating Pulse notes
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
After adding a case and entering 15 Pulse notes, scrolling down resulted in the notes being duplicated. Investigation traced this to entering more than 10 posts in a single interaction on a previously empty case when "Progressive pagination" was enabled for the repeating dynamic layout. On Private Edit, if the pagination was changed to "NONE" then the issue was resolved. Pagination depends on the pzPagingStartDateTime property, which is set on D_pzFeedParams, but since there were no results in this scenario this property was not being set. To resolve this, an update has been made so that pzPagingStartDateTime will be set if it is empty.

Resolved touch events issue with updated Google Chrome
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
After upgrading Google Chrome, touch events on a flow action under the Action Button in a case or on the application under "Launch web interface" were not reacting and the flow actions were not accessed. Investigation showed that Google Chrome's latest upgrade (79.0.3945.130) removed the ontouchstart property in the window, causing the isTouchable capability identification method to fail. This has been resolved by adding a check for navigator.maxTouchPoints to identify for Google Chrome whether the device involved has a touchscreen.
