Work object status correctly set to Resolved after refresh
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
When using the Refresh option from the Other Actions menu before submitting the flow action, the work object status was not updating to Resolved-Completed. Investigation showed that when performing the Refresh action, the RefreshOnConflicts activity created a Clipboard page named LatestWorkPage with a copy of the work object. This page was not removed after use, causing the Resolved-Completed status to be set on LatestWorkPage instead of pyWorkPage. To resolve this, a step has been added to RefreshOnConflicts to remove LatestWorkPage.

Editing Approval flowshape retains decision tree
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
Editing the Approval flowshape caused the decision tree to become blank when selecting 'Use Business logic' in the dropdown for "Route to dropdown". This was traced to a missed use case for earlier work done on enhancements for email approver shapes regarding retaining previous values while switching back to using the business logic option, and has been resolved.

RefreshFor correctly returns validation messages
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
After upgrade, the PUT method on /api/v1/assignments/{ID}/actions/{actionID}/refresh?refreshFor was not returning validation messages on the child level. This was an unintended consequence of refactoring work done on pzApiCreateJsonForField around the default value calculation, and has been resolved. In addition, an issue with read-only text controls not being localized has been corrected.

Updated timestamp handling for duplicate key issue with PyCompleteAutomation
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
Occasionally a robot failed to complete a case due to a duplicate key exception. This was an issue with the History record creation due to duplicate key erlated to the timestamp, and has been resolved by updating the timestamp handling so that the REST API will use 'getCurrentTimeStampUnique' and for other cases 'pxGetCurrentTimeStampThreadUnique' will be used.

Upload with "Select File" works in Microsoft Internet Explorer
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
When using Microsoft Internet Explorer, uploading a document was failing on the first try when using the "Select File" button. The second attempt worked as expected. This was an unintended consequence of work done to enable attaching the same file after deleting it, and was related to Internet Explorer calling an "onChange" which caused the "pzAttachFileDDFileList" section which is used to display the attachments uploaded to not be properly refreshed. This has been resolved by updating the pzMultiFilePath control handling of the success and failure of the upload function call.

Parent flow next step will take precedence over sub-process
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.1
A Breadcrumb configured in the screen flow was not displaying at the last assignment when there were multiple embedded sub processes and the last assignment was called in a sub process. This was traced to the parent flow next step information not being passed due to the next step in the sub process being marked as an end shape. To resolve this, the pzFlowSteps7 html control has been updated to pass the parent flow's next step information in this situation.

OpenIfStale updated to resolve optimistic locking race condition
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.1
A race condition was created in optimistic locking by having two assignments save at overlapping times. This has been resolved by modifying the pzShowConflicts activity to use a version of openIfStale which will consider a workpage as stale even if the difference in pxUpdateDatetime is in milliseconds.

Handling updated for wait shapes with different outgoing connector flow actions
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.1
After configuring a flow with a wait shape that by default used the pyContinueAfterWait flow action for the outgoing connector of the wait shape refer, adding any other valid flow action resulted in the error "Action To Take must be a valid flow action for this assignment". This was due to the post-processing of the connector properties modal updating the ActionToTake value based on wait shape, so that changing the flow action on a connector caused the validation on save to fail if the ActionToTake on wait shape and the connector flow action did not match. To resolve this, the system has been modified to validate a wait shape with different flow action on the outgoing connector.

Check added for WorkParty property to catch changes
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.1
After configuring a send email shape to send email to work parties, proceeding through the flow without work parties and then triggering the send email shape and creating the Fix correspondence assignment worked as expected. If the work party details were later updated and the send email shape was triggered again for the Fix correspondence assignment, the error message "No role defined to work object" appeared. This was an issue with the handling of the email flow the second time through: PyCorrPage.pyCorrPartyRole did not have the work object party details which were added to the work object after the fix correspondence assignment was created, and SendSimpleEmail was not designed to handle the email that needs to be retried during the FixCorrespondence flow call. To resolve this, the system will check whether the pyWorkParty property exists prior to calling the PartyCorrPreferences HTML rule.

Case history filter added for manual instantiation of Child Case
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.1
After upgrade from v7.4 to v8.3, creating any child case from a parent case unexpectedly added the audit history "Child case xxxxx has been manually instantiated" to the parent case. In order to make this customizable, an "isHistoryAvailable" function has been added in the 'when' condition of "AddCoveredWork" Activity's "History-Add" Step. This will use the FilterHistory decision tree, which now has a setting for "ChildCaseInsAudit" to control whether or not the manual Instantiation of a Child Case will appear in the case history. The default is "true"; setting it to "false" will suppress the message.
