INC-207218 · Issue 706369

Check added to prevent duplicate approval by single agent

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4

When using a cascading Approvals process supported both by a web access button or by responding via email, a single agent could use both methods and advance a case an additional step as if they were the next approval level. This was due to the system only checking the pzInsKey when processing the approval while the assignment key will be the same for the cascading approvals assignments. This has been resolved by introducing a datetime check to validate if the email approval assignment creation datetime and the one in the database have same value; if yes the approval process will proceed and if not it will exit.

Email Approver shown in audit

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4

Email Approver activity was not being shown in Audit. This was traced to the queue instance primary page missing the necessary pyInboundEmail page property from pyCreateAndManageWorkFromEmail, and has been resolved by updating the listener activity to copy the needed value to a property called pyEmailFrom which will be used to record the events in the audit.

Check added for parent case dependency if deferred-save is used

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4

After updating the status of a parent case to "Pending-ChildCaseDependency", the wait shape for the child case that should have been triggered by the status did not work and the child case remained on hold. This was a missed use case for the pxCheckFlowDependencies activity where defer-save operations on Index-AssignDeps class was not considered, and may happen when the Queue Processor is evaluating the dependencies while instances to Index-AssignDeps are not committed yet. To resolve this, code has been added to check the entry of the parent case dependency in deferred-save if its not present in Index-AssignmentDeps table.

Updated logic for setting param.PrimaryPage in transfer

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4

TransferAssignment was failing intermittently when doing routing either by background processing or manual transfer. Investigation showed this was caused by a null param.PrimaryPage value which resulted in a NullStepPage exception. This has been resolved by adding a Property-Set method just before calling the activity pxTransferAssignment. In addition, the "Require authentication to run" check box in the pxTransferAssignment activity has been set to on.

Resume Flow will print Flow Action Label in audit history

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4

After calling Resume Flow for processing the assignments, when the Assignment was processed the Flow Action Name was printed on the Audit History instead of Flow Action Label. Investigation showed that in the Complete assignment activity, there was no code in the 'if' loop to set the value of actionLabel. If the value was null, the property set in the next step sets actionLabel to flowActionID and the audit history result is FlowAction ID instead of FlowAction Label. To resolve this, logic has been added in the CompleteAssignment Activity step 5 to set ActionLabel with Flow Action Label.

Corrected doubled tag removal

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4

After adding two tags for a Service case, attempting to delete the first tag resulted in the second tag also being removed. When three tags were present in the case, deleting the first tag caused the first and second to be deleted. Investigation showed this was caused by the run activity pyRemoveTagLink being called twice in run time, and has been resolved by updating the run activity.

Simplified default reference time calculations

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4

After a job scheduler was configured to run at Start time = 21:00:00 for Time zone = Europe/London, the scheduler determined 20:00:00 as the next start time. This was due to the calculation for the next start time using the time zone offset calculation pattern for the date and time stored in System-Runtime-Context.pxCreateDateTime, which had difficulty with changes to the time zone definition implemented in the time between the given date and today (meaning the current time) such as daylight savings time. To resolve this, the default reference time from System Runtime Context will be 'now' instead of Date(0).

PRconfig added for JVM user/password

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4

The setting Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.local.only=true has been added for use when JMX authentication is enabled by providing jmxuser/password through prconfig.

INC-184964 · Issue 705934

TextMask_Encrypted rule added for use with Oracle

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4

When a property was being encrypted by propertyEncrypt access control policy and masked by propertyRead access control policy, it showed a "@@getMaskedValueOfText" error. This has been resolved with the addition of a new rule pxTextMask_Encrypted for Oracle product type which will remove extra spaces from the SOURCE string to handle ORACLE specific usecases.

INC-195580 · Issue 684493

Delay Factor updated to allow values < 1.0

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4

After modifying the "Delay factor" parameter on a queue processor rule and and clicking the "Save" button, refreshing the page caused the value of the "Delay factor" parameter to change. This has been resolved by updating the delay calculation strategy to support factors < 1.0.
