Removed services check and added warnings for simulations
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1
Attempting to run an audience simulation resulted in the error "Running simulations is not possible, because the required services are not available. Contact your system administrator to enable the data flow and real-time data grid services". Investigation showed the @DsmServices.pxHasFunctionalNodes("DataFlow","Batch") function call contained in the 'when' rule pyUnavailableDecisionServices was returning false even if all the nodes were in the cluster and all the DSM Services were in NORMAL status. To resolve this, the services check has been disabled and the simulation run will show a warning or fail if a data flow run is queued for more than 30 secs or if there is an issue with querying the underlying metrics storage.

Explicit connectivity close added to Queue Manager error handling
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1
Performing a connectivity test on the MQ Connector page with an invalid queue name aborts the test connectivity but the MQ connection was not closing. This can become an issue when using IBM MQaaS (MQ as a service) where only a limited number of connections are allowed. This has been resolved by adding an explicit Queue Manager close in the error handling block.

Updated handling for parametrized data pages on offline mobile app
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1
After update, the UI in the offline mobile app was showing .pyStandardValue and not the LookUpValue. This was caused by parametrized data pages not getting populated when used on UI components so the custom populator was not getting called, and has been corrected.

Resolved activity registration error for Scan Barcode/QR Code
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1
Attempting to add the action 'Scan Barcode/QR Code' to a button generated the warning "Unauthorized request detected : Unregistered request encountered with params pyActivity:pzRunActionWrapper pySubAction:runAct pzActivity:pzScanCode". Investigation showed this was due to the pzScanCode activity referred to in pzpega_control_actions_scanCode.js file not being registered, and has been resolved by adding code to register the necessary events for both button and navigation.
