Discard changes dialog now showing for local actions
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.7
After having modified case data without saving and clicking on a menu entry (left menu, search, ...), the system shows a dialog box to ask the user to confirm it is ok to discard changes. However, this confirmation dialog did not work with local actions, leading users to lose their work without any warning nor any way to step back. This was traced to a difference in the dirty form check, which was not present when launching a local action from a case. An enhancement has now been added to the handleMenuAction js function in pypega_ui_harnessactions.js which will perform a dirty form check with a prompt.

pxGenerateExcelFile updated for handling blank dates
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.7
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.

Added explicit step page to resolve null-pointer exception with custom error message
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.7
A null pointer exception was generated during case run time harness refresh after a custom error message was inserted. This was traced to a blank step page related to the custom message, and has been resolved by adding a primary step page at step 10 of the New(Work-) activity to prevent the null-pointer exception on harness reload.

oLog.infoForced has been replaced with oLog.debug in GetAssignmentDetailsInternal to reduce excessive logging
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.7
The Rest API used by Robotics was generating excessive logging on the application server due toPzGetAssignmentDetailsInternal generating several lines of logs with each REST call. In a high volume system, this can make the logs difficult to utilize. To resolve this, oLog.infoForced has been replaced with oLog.debug.

Updated ConfirmHarness handling for case type creation
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.2
If a new case type was created with the initialization stage and there were no assignments in the case type, the /cases API did not return a NextPageID in response. This has been resolved by setting the pyConfirmHarness parameter before calling addworkobject.

Correct flow actions loaded in multi-thread portal refresh
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.2
The member authentication screen was displaying an incorrect flow action on doing browser refresh after creating a new interaction. Refresh is a special case where the parameter retention is different across single-threaded & multi-threaded portals alongside the execution order of activities. In this case, this inconsistency occurred in a multi-threaded portal when newAssignPage had the information to load the proper assignment but the parameter indicated an old index. This has been resolved by adding 'when' conditions to to populate and pass the correct references and labels and to honor the Param.TaskIndex set and sent by UI activities so it's retained in case of multi-thread portals.

Visible element populated for field value controls
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.2
When implementing a section which had several labels with visible when conditions, this is not reflected in the DX API Get Assignment View. This has been resolved by adding a visible element.

HTML tags escaped in Audit History field values
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.2
The case narrative section was showing case statuses with encoded special characters such as % or ( ), resulting in entries such as "Status changed to Complete &# 40;approved& #41; !@#$ %^& amp;*&# 40;&# 41;_&# 43;.". This has been resolved by updating the PyMemo field from type Text Input to DisplayAsLiteral for case narrative, which matches the setting for case history.

Wait action persists when using Urgency Adjustment
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.2
When using the Urgency Adjustment (pyAdjustAssignmentsla standard local action), once a case reached the wait action and the goal and deadline were updated the previous pyWaitAction was not being stored. This has been resolved by ensuring the previous pyWaitAction will be stored and passed to the AddAssign activity.

DateTime format check added for REST response
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.2
While retrieving case details using the standard GetCases API, a datetime field defined on a work object was returned in JSON date format i.e. "QuoteExpiryDate": "2021-06-09T14:00:00.000Z". However when the same field was mapped to a flow action's section, the value was retrieved by the GetAssignmentAction API which returned the value in Pega's date format, "value": "20210609T140000.000 GMT". This was traced to a missed datetime format check in the REST response, and has been resolved by using the Rule-Utility-Function pzAPICreateJsonForField to handle the conversion of the time stamp to JSON format.
