Removed services check and added warnings for simulations
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1
Attempting to run an audience simulation resulted in the error "Running simulations is not possible, because the required services are not available. Contact your system administrator to enable the data flow and real-time data grid services". Investigation showed the @DsmServices.pxHasFunctionalNodes("DataFlow","Batch") function call contained in the 'when' rule pyUnavailableDecisionServices was returning false even if all the nodes were in the cluster and all the DSM Services were in NORMAL status. To resolve this, the services check has been disabled and the simulation run will show a warning or fail if a data flow run is queued for more than 30 secs or if there is an issue with querying the underlying metrics storage.

Explicit connectivity close added to Queue Manager error handling
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1
Performing a connectivity test on the MQ Connector page with an invalid queue name aborts the test connectivity but the MQ connection was not closing. This can become an issue when using IBM MQaaS (MQ as a service) where only a limited number of connections are allowed. This has been resolved by adding an explicit Queue Manager close in the error handling block.

Table selector updated to handle complex autocomplete dropdowns
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1
Whenever an autocomplete and a table were in different sections, only the first 40 results were visible in the dropdown and the other spaces were shown as blank. The issue did not occur if the table and autocomplete were in same section. This was traced to a specific configuration where Section A had an autocomplete inside the dropdown list and autocomplete was enabled to show the results in a table (presentation tab) and Section B, which contained a grid, was included in Section A in the same autocomplete dropdown list. This has been resolved by updating the table selector in ui_grid so it uses the correct dom elements.

Dashoard widget drilldown section adjusts dynamically
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1
While trying to expand the drilldown columns, text was overlapping due to the grid not adjusting the large size of data dynamically. This was traced to an unnecessary CSS rule being applied to set max-height which broke the styling. This has been resolved by removing the height limitation on detail cells.

Ensured correct context for multi-select
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1
When using multi-select controls, there was an intermittent issue with selecting values using a mouse click. Using the tab key worked as expected. This was traced to the focus being event triggered multiple times so pega.ctx.dom returned undefined values in the second call.This has been resolved by focusing the target element before creation of capsule to ensure the context remains the same.

Decimal places showing correctly after update
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1
After selecting Decimal places in the Property Panel in the section for a particular property, the decimal places were not added on tab-out at runtime. Decimal places were correctly applied if no property was specified. Investigation showed that an explicit post value call was initiated to apply the read-only formatting, but that call was suppressed by other conditions related to updating the Pega version. To resolve this, an unneeded data-auto-formatting conditional check has been removed.

SearchKeyword assed to HandleInput allow list
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1
After creating a section and placing a template grid with a button to refresh the section on click, clicking the button generated a SECU0001 alert. This was traced to gridMetadata_(uniqueID).pySearchKeyword not being registered when the property is part of a form data post request, and this has been resolved by adding pySearchKeyword to the allow list in HandleInput.java.
