Null check added for step page
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.6
After creating and adding new Access Roles and application 'Access When' to the privileges instead of Production level, during run time the error "runtime.IndeterminateConditionalException: Trying to evaluate Rule-Access-When conditions L:IsProdAccess when there is no page to evaluate them against" appeared for the specific privileges. This was traced to a missed use case where the system falls back to the step page if the page for evaluating the 'when' condition is null, which did not account for scenarios where the step page can be null. To resolve this, a null check has been added which will fetch the primary page if the step page for the access 'when' condition is null.

Improved disconnected requestor cleanup for FieldService
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.6
A large number of requestors from FieldService with the status as 'Disconnected' were accumulating and causing performance issues. This was traced to the requestors not getting passivated due to users not logging out and new requestors being created for the same users next time, and was caused by the value of the DSS Initialization/PersistRequestor being set as "OnTimeout". When the DSS prconfig/timeout/browser/default is not configured, the default browser requestor timeout is 60 minutes. In this scenario, requestors were not passivating as the requestor passivation timeout was set to the refresh token lifetime for mobile users, which was very large and overwrote the DSS value. This has been resolved by removing the code which set the passivation timeout to the OAuth2 refresh token lifetime.

Warnings pull from report definition page
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.2
When a report definition filter was used in the "Class instances to include" section of the Product rule, severe warnings appeared noting "Report definition filter performance issues for LookupDataMigration : Using a custom HTML control to format a column may result in poor performance displaying query results. Consider using auto-generated HTML controls". However, the report definition used, LookupDataMigration, has no Custom HTML control in the latest version of the rule, and the "CheckForWarnings" rule for the product was running a report definition in the "Index-Warning" class which has the warnings for all the versions of the rule. This was due to warnings being displayed in the product for the report definition filter without applying rule resolution for report definition, resulting in warnings from all report definition version rules from a ruleset given a report definition name. This has been resolved by adding an update which will use Obj-Open to read the warnings from report definition page instead of looking up for warnings from Index-Warnings table.

Patchdate values made unique
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.2
The hotfix manager was incorrectly indicating that a previous hotfix was not installed or was partially installed and should be reinstated. This scenario was created during security updates where the missing/incomplete hotfix had been deliberately deleted from the database, and has been resolved by adding an update which will force patchdate to be unique when adding duplicate code resources during tests.

Handling updated for rule export errors
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.2
After exporting the rules from E2E, the import to the production mirror failed. Investigation showed that the process encountered a time out from an Adaptive Decision Manager table when exporting the product rule, resulting in the product file not containing the mandatory jar files. This has been resolved by updating the handling of errors during export, and suppressing auto-chaining when generating app JSON.

Handling added for Oracle "NUMERIC" type
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.2
When a product rule was created in an environment using Oracle, importing the product into the cloud environment with database table schema changes resulted in errors. This was traced to a change in Oracle's JDBC driver which was reporting Number as a JDBC "NUMERIC" type instead of the previous "DECIMAL". Pega uses the NUMBER data type and expected a type=DECIMAL for an Oracle number, causing the errors. This has been resolved by adding a check for flex numbers if column is NUMERIC.
