SR-D51535 · Issue 519476

Enhanced discrimination for tasks in MyPega spaces

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

When using My Pega for spaces and tasks, using drag and drop to move many cases around quickly resulted in tasks intermittently ending up in a state where they could not be updated further and became unusable. Analysis showed that because the milliseconds part of the update time was rounded, the logic of comparing for value between 0 and 1000 failed when the comparison returned -ve value. To resolve this, the comparison has been modified to !=0 and the 'when' rule pyContinueTaskProcessing has been added as an extension along with the appropriate usage guide to restrict processing. By default, the system will consider task name, description, due date, assignee, and rank properties; if more properties are needed to evaluate, this when rule can help.

Custom attachment category parameter passed to dropdown

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

Attempting to use the out-of-the-box “Attachments control” which was configured at design time to use a custom category where both the custom category and the section class were in the same work class resulted in the attachment category dropdown defaulting to “File” instead of the custom category. Investigation showed that the custom attachment category name configured on the control was missing in one of the pre-processing activities sequence. To resolve this, the activity Work-.pzInitAttachContent and the initAttachmentPage activity have been updated to pass the custom attachment category parameter.

XSS filtering added for CreateMergedWordDoc

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

XSS filtering has been added for the TemplateName parameter value in the CreateMergedWordDoc section.

SR-D33227 · Issue 510826

Check added for lock expiration when using Save for Default locking

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

With the default case locking policy, during the process from creating a Case Object to Submit it was possible for multiple users to edit and save the same work object if the lock expired for the original user. No warnings appeared. To resolve this, handling has been added for a lock expiration scenario: previously, Save for Default locking was not considered. This has now been updated with a check that will evaluate whether or not the lock is gone before attempting to save.

Handling added for null requiredskillcount on assignment

Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7

If the property pxRequiredSkillCount was blank on an assignment when moved to a workbasket, it was never presented for Get Next Work. To resolve this, handling has been added which will change the null to 0 so the assignment is properly queued.

Corrected approval step task message

Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7

When a case progressed to the approval step, the task name did not properly appear as part of the "Please approve or reject this" message. In another scenario, a portal which supported locale switching was not translating "Please approve or reject this" when the locale was switched, but instead displayed the message in the original language. Investigation traced this to the pzInstructionsForApproval data transform storing the localized field value, causing it to persist inappropriately. This has been resolved.

INC-127077 · Issue 564107

Busy indicator appears when uploading via Select

Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7

After update, the “loading symbol” (busy indicator) was not appearing while uploading large attachments using the Select button. This was a missed use case in recent changes to related to AsyncUpload, and has been resolved.

SR-D76291 · Issue 547840

Updated retry logic for S3 AddAttachmentFromEmail

Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7

When using the AddAttachmentFromEmail activity with S3 repositories, performing an obj-save on the data-workattach-file page executes a deferred save while also saving the file into the repository. if the data was inserted into S3 successfully but encountered an issue when saving the related data-work-attach-file page, the system was trying to call the save operation again. This tried to insert the duplicate attachment again to S3, causing an error on that side of the process. To resolve this, the duplicate Obj-Save functionality in AddAttachmentFromMail Activity has been removed.

Completed onChange will reset FileInput value to null

Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7

When attaching a file using the "Select File" button, it was not possible to attach the same file after deleting it. Re-attaching the file worked as expected when using Drag and Drop. Investigation showed that the onchange event occurred only when the value of an element was changed, so in this case trying to attach the same file did not change the value of the element and did not fire the onchange. To resolve this, the value of FileInput in pzMultiFilePath Control will be set to null at the end of the onChange event so that an onChange event will be triggered next time even if the same file is added.

INC-173068 · Issue 654064

HTML tags escaped in Audit History field values

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.6

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.
