SQL queries modified to use qualified table references
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.2
Portal launch in the development environment was taking an excessive amount of time, as were some standard reports. The PurgeAssemplyDatabaseCache agent activity also generated an error regarding "(internal.cache.RAPurge) ERROR - Purge, unexpected error in removeOldAppCentricCacheData". These issues were traced to SQL queries that contained pr_sys_app_hierarchy_flat without a schema qualifier, and have been resolved by changing to class qualified table references.

Catch added for corrupted alert configuration
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.2
On creation of a queue processor rule, the alert ID was not present in the logs due to a missing alert configuration page. After this action, the server was not accessible and could not be started. This has been resolved by catching the exception if the alert configuration is malformed or missing.

Performance improvements for save-as
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.5
Performance issues were seen when using save-as for rules such as Declare expression, When rules, activity, etc. This was traced to a very large number of extra database queries that were being executed while building the Declarative Cache. To resolve this, an update has been made so the queries used for the Declarative Cache will only be executed when required.

Removed duplicate alert events
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.5
Duplicate applications were seen in the PDC Event Viewer, e.g. ‘Adviser 01.01’ and ‘Adviser:01.01' - one without a colon and one with a colon. Investigation showed that alert events logged via AsyncServices were being logged as "ApplicationName Version" instead of "ApplicationName:Version", and this has been resolved by updating AsyncServiceBatchTask.java to use the expected application name while logging alert events.

REST authentication settings use fully qualified name for resolution
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.5
The application setting used in REST connectors for authentication was resolving to similarly-named rules instead of matching the exact name of the rule. This has been resolved by enhancing pzGetSettingID to use both parts of the fully qualified name (name and category) provided by the pzSettingsORA control when determining which setting from the report to return.

Null value handling added for CBU
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.5

This has been resolved by adding handling for null values passed as String for arguments from cbu.xml for the PegaCBU utility.

BigDecimal handling updated for @sum function
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.5
The @sum function was not behaving correctly. This was traced to the java code in the 'sum--(ClipboardPropertyCollection)' function which was not properly converting the double to Bigdecimal for some of the inputs like 500, 500, 600.11. This has been resolved by modifying the function to convert input properties to BigDecimal, add BigDecimal values, and return the result.
