Error when adding function filter will persist
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8
When an exception occurred while adding a filter in the report viewer, the error was shown but cleared due to an immediate refresh of the parent section. Analysis found that step2 of pzGetFiltersFromContent was failing, after which the error was shown, the section reload happened, and the error disappeared. To resolve the error being cleared prematurely, the pzOnLoadReloadReport control has been modified so that when there are messages on the top level page (pyReportContentPage), a parameter will be set on HarnessContextMgr to not to clear them during the next refresh call.

Documentation updated to clarify displaying property values for Declare Expressions
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
The documentation regarding Declare Expressions rules has been updated to clarify that declare expressions do not support displaying values of target properties in the user interface if the target property is an embedded property and if the calculation engages forward chaining. Declare expressions always display property values if the calculation uses backward chaining. During forward chaining, the system might render the UI before populating the clipboard, and the properties are not visible in the UI. To show updated values, define refresh conditions in the UI to get new values from the server when the values change.

Documentation updated for accents and special characters used in search
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
The "Pega search API" article has been updated to reflect that the search functionality in Pega Platform does not match accented words with unaccented. For example, searching for santé and sante will retrieve different results. In addition, Domain Specific Language (DSL) includes special characters for use when searching, for example '-', '_', '!', '@'. However, the system retrieves various results depending on the way the special characters are used in the search query. If the query contains special characters that are not escaped, the system may retrieve incorrect results. For example, not escaping the slash mark in the 25/02 query may cause the system to ignore the special character.
