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.

Dynamic RTE support added to Word document generation
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1
Pega document generation from a Word template was not properly replacing field codes in the document header or footer and failed to render images embedded in rich text fields. An enhancement has now been added to pzGenerateDocument which will support dynamic content from RTE.

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.

Query split added to handle Oracle expressions limit
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
The PXCHECKFLOWDEPENDENCIES activity was throwing the Oracle error message "ORA-01795: maximum number of expressions in a list is 1000" when a case had a very large number of sub-cases, causing a failure in trying to submit additional child cases which sent them into the broken process. This has been resolved by updating the pxCheckFlowDependencies rule to break down the query parameter into batches of 999 so they can be handled by Oracle.

Added handling to find the workparty for FixCorrespondence
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
Using a Send Email smart shape and triggering email by passing the target email ID instead of the workparty role triggered the email as expected, but if a fix correspondence flow was initiated due to some error during the transaction, it was not possible to resubmit the fix flow action. Investigation showed that this was due to the fix correspondence flow check using the party role, which had not been passed. This has been resolved by updating the corrUpdate and createAndProcessCorr activities to copy the pyCorrPage from NotifyOp which contains the getgetEmailSenderInfo and use it to set pyCorrPage.pyStreamType.

Field Level Audit updated to handle hierarchical properties
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
Field Audit was not working for the first change of the data selected/provided for a field. The audit was only reflected after the second change was made. When the property involved a series of hierarchies, for example pageprop.pagelist(1).pageprop, the FLA objects will initially use deferred saves and the generated pzinskeys will be added to a savedFLAMap object. However, when the last pageprop was not eligible to save, all the deferred saves of earlier records were cancelled but the inskeys were not removed from the savedFLAMap object. Because of this, the parent FLA records were assumed to have been saved already when those saves were actually deferred. This was a missed use case for hierarchical properties, and has been resolved by adding an update to remove the inskeys from the savedFLAMap object so that in the subsequent property change the audit's FLA records for the parent properties (pageprop.pagelist(1)) will be saved again.

Updated error handling in AddAttachmentFromMail
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
Attachments links were still showing in case attachments even if the files were not uploaded to the repository. This was traced to the system not skipping code related to attaching files when there were errors on the attachment page, and has been resolved by updating AddAttachmentFromMail to perform this skip.
