Performance improvements for action check-in
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.2
The process of 'Saving As' an action to a higher ruleset, Saving, and then running Check-in was taking an excessive amount of time. This was traced to redundant page copy activities and performance has been improved by updating the implementation.

Unused DSS compiledExpressions now defaults to false
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.2
After updating from Pega 8.2 to Pega 8.5, executing a test campaign failed with an error in logs. This occurred when running Distribution tests with "Include funnel analysis reports" checked, and was traced to the DSS setting "decision/strategy/ssaVM/compiledExpressions". As this was previously used to toggle a feature which is no longer in use, the default setting for this DSS has now been changed to false to resolve this issue.

ComponentName fallback added for toggling page context
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.2
Whenever the External Strategy configuration was changed from "Another Page" to "Current Page", pyComponentName property was not being created. This was a missed use case for toggling page context for external substrategies in the user interface of the strategy designer, and has been resolved by setting pyComponentName to its default if reset when switching context.

DSS added to configure usage of Topup
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.2
During NBAD-generated strategy execution, each interaction history summary is queried twice to check data relevancy. This update adds configuration options to disable topup in aggregate datasets. Topup can be disabled with the following configuration items:- Set prconfig "ih/aggregates/last_customer_update_method" to NONE - Set DSS "cep/aggregates_dataset/partition_proc_cache_time" to -1

Handling added for clearing node killed between assignment and processing
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
An Offer flow was not resuming after it expired according to the wait shape. Investigation traced this to partitions which were assigned to a dead node in NEW state where they were not picked up by the dataflow. The problem was only encountered in the unusual situation when a dataflow node was killed in the brief period of time between the assignment and the processing, and has been resolved by adding an update which will clear unknown new assigned partitions for the batch run health task.

Localization added to DelegateDescription
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
Localization was not working correctly for the description of a delegated rule due to pyDelegeteDescription being defined with a non-localized Property value. This has been resolved by localizing the property value for pyDelegeteDescription.

Updated entity attachment extraction tokenizers
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
After creating an entity extraction model, it was seen that one of the entities worked when there was a space after the semicolon but the detection was not working if there was no space. This has been resolved by updating the Tokenizers with extra examples to address tokenization when ":" is present between two words without any spaces.

Resolved error for custom relative dates
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
An error was seen when parsing the [Date Property] [is before/after] [Last/Next x days] while using a custom amount of number of days in Customer Decision Hub (CDH). This was due to the system not supporting the [Last/Next x days] feature for SSA, but only detecting this during parsing for the prefixed values for Proposition Filters and not custom values. As the parser did not realize the construct referring to the relative date was not supported, it created an SSA that caused an exception during execution. This has been resolved.

Actuals sync clears data from cache and persistence
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
When sync attempted to clear the existing data from Actuals before copying data from the interaction history, the partition was cleared from the cache but not from persistence. IH data that was then copied to the same partition time ranges had new field descriptors created that did not match the format of the old data in persistence. As a result, when a query triggered the loading of such a partition, the mix of data with the old and new formats caused the load to fail. This has been resolved by updating the system to ensure the data is deleted properly from both the cache and persistence.
