SR-A4308 · Issue 211808

Corrected revalidateAndSave modifying the 'Applies to' class

Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.9

During upgrade, revalidateAndSave was modifying the 'Applies to' class of the included rule. The issue was caused by modification of the pyIncludedRuleXML in the flow action / section rules that holds the included section's information; flow action was depending on this page to set the class, but since this page no longer existed the class was defaulting to the current flow action's primary class. To resolve this, if pyPrompt class is blank in activity Rule-Obj-FlowAction.OpenDefaults, the system will try to get the page name from the flow action rule, iterate across its pages and classes, and find the class name where the page name matches and set that as the applies to class for the flow action's section.

Resolved privilege issue for Attach Rule

Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.9

A RuleNotFound error was generated if a 'when' rule was part of a custom attachment category rule (specified for access control) and there was an attempt to add an attachment when the WO was opened in Review mode or if an attachment was being added to a resolved WO. Due to the error, the customer category was not then available in the category drop down list. This was due to GetListOfAttachmentCategories referring to newAssignPage to get the reference page and failing the privilege check. This has been resolved by updating the steps to default to pyWorkPage for the local variable.

Improved performance for large History-Work reports

Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.9

When History-Work- contained a very large number of rows, performance issues were seen while running the History-Work-.pyGetStatusChanges report. To resolve this, the RD History-Work-.pyGetStatusChanges has been updated with modified filtering conditions and improved error handling for blank param.InsKey fields.

Added handling for agent activity with no primary page

Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.9

Running an agent activity with no primary page generated an NPE even though all step pages were correctly specified. This was caused by the out-of-the-box referring to the nonexistent primary page in a context where it was not necessary. While there was a workaround of specifying a primary page for the agent activity, a change has been made to set and retrieve messages from pyPDFAttachWorkPage instead of a primary page in this situation.

OrgUnit delete works as expected

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

After creating two organization units such as Unit1 and Unit11 on the same level and mapping one operator to Unit11, attempting to delete Unit1 resulted in an error indicating the operator had to be deleted first even though unit1 had no operator associated with it. This was traced to Obj-List performing a 'like' check instead of exact match check for the deletion, and has been resolved by updating the ValidateDelete activity to do obj-browse instead of obj-list.

SR-D19999 · Issue 488268

Logic updated for displaying email attachments

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

Once an Email had been sent with attachments, additional attachments could be added to the work object at a later time and would show up when the work object was opened as if they had been part of the original transmission of the message. This was traced to the logic not accounting for for the state of the data-corr-email object and showing all the work object attachments as sent as part of the email irrespective of when the attachment was added. To resolve this, the system has been updated to save all the attachment keys that are sent as part of the email on the data-corr-email instance and use that property while retrieving the list of attachments sent on the email. If the attachment is deleted, no hyperlink will be shown but instead a message on hover on the attachment memo will note that the attachment was deleted and not available for download.

Enhancement added to expose BrowserAttachmentTypeTable

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

By default, the inline view of PDF files appears with the thread name visible. An enhancement has been made to expose pzBrowserAttachmentTypeTable as a py rule: when the DT is overridden such that return is false for PDF, the inline view is not displayed but instead the PDF is downloaded when clicked.

SR-D23723 · Issue 503089

pxGenerateExcelFile updated for handling blank dates

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

When using a custom template for exporting to Excel, blank DateTime property column values defaulted to the current date or to 1/1/1970. 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.

SR-D24470 · Issue 494628

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.
