Hidden Question pages and answers will be saved to database

Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3

After a question page was shown and some values were entered, going back to the question and reverting an option caused the question page to not be visible, but the answer values persisted in the clipboard and were eventually saved into the database. This was a missed use case for Question page smart shapes, and has been resolved by updating the pzSetQuestionPageParams data transform so that whenever a question page is evaluated to either to show/hide, when the question page visibility is set to false and the pyClearAnswerValuesWhenQPHidden 'when' rule is overridden, the corresponding values will be wiped from the clipboard and only the required values will be saved to the database. However, please note this is not supported for branching logic and visibility conditions should be used instead.

Mobile channel upgrade wizard correctly initiated

Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3

After upgrade, the offline mobile app was not loading the correct portal. This was traced to missing properties needed to launch the upgrade wizard for channels upgrading from a previous release to v8.5, and has been resolved by setting those properties in upgrade activities.

Enhancement added to expose BrowserAttachmentTypeTable

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1

By default, the inline view of PDF files appears with the thread name visible. An enhancement has been made to expose pzBrowserAttachmentTypeTable as a py rule: when the DT is overridden such that return is false for PDF, the inline view is not displayed but instead the PDF is downloaded when clicked.

pxGenerateExcelFile updated for handling blank dates

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1

When using a custom template for exporting to Excel, blank DateTime property column values defaulted to the current date. To resolve this, the pxGenerateExcelFile activity has been updated to ensure that an empty date will be exported as blank and that given dates will appear in the correct datetime format.

pxParseExcelFile activity will now parse multiple sheets

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1

When trying to use the activity pxParseExcelFile on an Excel file containing three sheets where each sheet had a different pagelist, the properties mentioned in sheet 1 were populated on upload but the remaining sheets only showed the error message "Could not get clipboard property for reference Work Queues.". This was caused by an error in Row index handling for the additional sheets, and has been resolved by updating the logic to populate the data in the clipboard. Additional issues for this issue in 8.4 to fix issues like formulae not getting evaluated and $ not parsed: 501592, 501383

Added handling for bulleted text insert triggering audit

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1

When a bulleted text (copied from an email or rich text ) was used in the text area property, the audit considered it as a change even when there was no change. This was tracked to the field value 'pyHistoryMemo • ChangeTrack_Add' in @baseclass which is being used to get the localized value for audit memo: the field value accepts only 2 parameters, but the inserted text area input contained the '\t' that is used for parameter translation. To resolve this, the system will call the addMemoForSecurityChangeTracking utility method to replace all \t's present in both the Current Value and Previous value with 'empty' such that no '\t' characters are available in either of the string parameters.

WorkBasketGadget control updated for improved backwards compatibility

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1

After upgrade, the WorkBasketGadget Control was not retrieving the work queues. This was traced to a backwards compatibility issue introduced when greater security was put in place. The control WorkBasketGadget contains a call to pzEncryptURLActionString that was introduced in 8.x versions of the platform to encrypt URLs to avoid hijacking. The content of the URL relies on the pxRequestor.pxWorkGroup property, which is resolved using pega:reference tags. This approach was working in versions below 8.x, but these tags were not resolved at runtime. To correct this, requestorWorkGroup will be resolved as string and passed as a parameter instead of using pega:reference tags.
