Resolved focus for new s-case
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.6
After creating an s-case by using the keyboard, the focus jumped to add task instead of newly added s-case page. This was traced to the 'if' condition in focusFirstElement method becoming true for all touchable devices including desktop with touch enabled, causing the focus method on the first element to not be executed. This has been resolved by adding an additional conditional to check whether the device has touch enabled and is a mobile device.

Java Bean import updated to handling differences in Java 7 and Java 8
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
The behavior of the java bean Introspector class is inconsistent across different versions of the JDK when detecting indexed properties built off of java.util.List objects, causing Java Bean import to generate differently in Java 7 and Java 8. This has been resolved by updating PRIndexedPropertyDescriptor to better handle this JDK difference by resolving indexed read and write methods manually using simple reflection.

ADM pulse timing changed to inprove performance on very large clusters
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.5
ADM uses a pulse that checks if any models need to be updated. This uses a Cassandra query which has no "where" clause, causing poor performance for very large clusters. For immediate relief of this issue, the pulse configuration has been updated to increase the timing from 30 to 300 seconds so it fires less often. Model updates typically happen every x hours and often the pulse will not detect any models that would need to be updated. Further improvements in this process will be available in a future release.

Resolved case lock release improved
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.5
Cases created through the create work object were unnecessarily holding onto locks for up to two hours. This was traced to a defer-write scenario for mobile devices which did not return the correct status needed for "no further assignments". In order to resolve this issue, a new parameter "returnNextActionInfo" of type boolean has been added to svcPerformFlowAction. This parameter will be always set as false when calling this activity from sync up so all locks will be closed and released.
