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.

Dynamic RTE support added to Word document generation

Discard changes dialog now showing for local actions
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1
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.

Thread cleanup improved for application switching to resolve skin issue
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1
After opening a Case from the HR application and then switching to another application to open another case, the Review Harness skin control was not loading correctly. This was traced to a thread cleanup issue relating to the Portal: on application switch, the system should clean up all threads created on the current application before switching to new application, but in this case thread cleanup was not happening as expected due to conflicts in the unload event handling. This has been corrected.

Stale WorkSearchPreference data cleared when switching apps
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
The D_pyWorkSearchPreferences data page data was not refreshing while switching between apps, causing stale data to be populated under the case search dropdown for all the applications after switching the application from one to another. This has been resolved by removing the D_pyWorkSearchPreferences data page as part of pzProcessApplicationSwitch.

FetchApplicationLogo modified to Filter by rule resolution
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
It was observed that the Report Definition rule "pzFetchApplicationLogo", referenced by Activity rule "pzLoadApplicationLogo", always returned the older version of the Binary File "webwb • pyapp-logo • svg" because it had been set to retrieve a maximum of one record and in this case the results were sorted in an order where the oldest record was at the top. As the Report Definition did not indicate any sorting, most DBMS were returning the results in no particular or predictable order. To resolve this, "Filter by rule resolution" has now been enabled for RD pzFetchApplicationLogo.

Updated retry logic for S3 AddAttachmentFromEmail
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
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.

Updated DisplayAttachment to handle SIngleClick download from Case Worker portal
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
On using the script "pega.ui.HarnessActions.doAttachmentSingleClick" in the Worker portal to download attachments displayed within a screen flow, the entire application was hanging and no action was invoked even on clicking the Continue or Finish buttons of the screen flow. Whenever an attachment is downloaded using the script function pega.ui.HarnessActions.doAttachmentSingleClick() , an iframe is used and changetracker is called to communicate data between different iframes. However, the case worker portal is a single thread model while the manager and admin portals are multi threaded, which resulted in changetracker freezing on the worker portal. To resolve this, the DisplayAttachment HTML rule has been updated to build the necessary changeTrackerMap for the worker portal.

FilterHistory decision tree used for audit log status
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
Attempting to use the “FilterHistory” decision tree in the work class to return value “false” for “pyCloseOpenAssignmentsOnResolution” to hide the “pyCloseOpenAssignmentsOnResolution” field value (“Unfinished assignments were cleaned up by the system after the completion.. ”) from history was not working as expected, and still returned the audit message. This was due to the system setting this AuditNote parameter within the “pzProcessResolutionStage” activity, where Param.UpdateHistory was set to true always. In order to support more flexibility, the Param.updateHistory paramter in step3 of the pzProcessResolutionStage activity will be set based on the FilterHistory decision tree. When set to false in FilterHistory decision tree, pyCloseOpenAssignmentsOnResolution will be set as false and audit will not be logged.

Resolved erroneous problem assignment error
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
If a user processed a work item while the SLA agent was also attempting to process it, it sometimes resulted in an assignment with the error: "Error: Flow Not At Task." In this scenario, an error message was displayed stating that "Assignment already completed" even though the assignment was not yet finished, causing confusion. Investigation showed that in cases where the success indicator was -28, the assignment was marked as problem assignment even though it was processed. To resolve this, the system has been updated to skip marking the assignment as a problem when the success indicator is -28.
