Resolved system hang after changing input field value post note

Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5

After upgrade, a session was hanging in a Non-Member Search Phone interaction after navigating back from "Add or edit attachments" window. The same code worked as expected in the Member Search Phone interaction. Investigation showed that changed values (transaction ID, pzFromFrame) were being sent to the client twice, once in the popup window after attaching the note and again to the parent window. When the changed values were consumed and used in next actions, a mismatch resulted in pzFromFrame. To resolve this, the system has been updated so the Client will not consume the pxThread.pxClientExchange value if pxThread.pxClientFrame is different from what the current tracker is using.

Hover logic updated

Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5

When using a dropdown in a grid layout configured with a smartInfo to be displayed on Hover, the smart tip was sometimes not displayed when the hover moved from the top to point to the dropdown. If the hover was done quickly, it was displayed. Previously, the hover was calculated only by cursor x, y positions and elements boundaries: to resolve this issue, the logic has been updated to also consider cases where the element is still hovered without meeting these conditions.

When no active document is available on login, first document will be marked active

Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5

After logging into the user portal, attempting to perform operations like (opening a case/work object, opening reports etc.) caused the browser request to spin or freeze. The only way to recover was to close and re-launch the browser window/session and re-login. This issue occurred when there was an active reportdefinition document before the browser/node crash in the tabless dynamic container(DC) portal. After recovery, the dynamic container did not recreate the report definition document but instead tried to activate the first document in the portal, which in this case was the default harness configured in the Dynamic Container. As it was not yet loaded, exceptions were thrown. To resolve this, when no active document is available, the first document will be marked as the active document.

Pagination context switch handling updated for mouse scroll

Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5

When using various tables in the client application that have the Pagination mode set to 'Progressive' and that contain hyperlinked elements on which an 'Open Work by Handle' action has been defined, clicking an element that was loaded progressively intermittently generated an alert with the message 'Empty work item handle'. Investigation showed that dragging the scroll bar to access the latest cases worked, but using the mouse to scroll and select replicated the issue immediately. This was caused by context not being properly switched to the current harness while scrolling due to missing context switch handlers. To resolve this, code changes have been made to set the correct context before sending the request.

Discard changes dialog now showing for local actions

Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.7

After having modified case data without saving and clicking on a menu entry (left menu, search, ...), the system shows a dialog box to ask the user to confirm it is ok to discard changes. However, this confirmation dialog did not work with local actions, leading users to lose their work without any warning nor any way to step back. This was traced to a difference in the dirty form check, which was not present when launching a local action from a case. An enhancement has now been added to the handleMenuAction js function in pypega_ui_harnessactions.js which will perform a dirty form check with a prompt.

SR-D23723 · Issue 503090

pxGenerateExcelFile updated for handling blank dates

Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.7

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

Added explicit step page to resolve null-pointer exception with custom error message

Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.7

A null pointer exception was generated during case run time harness refresh after a custom error message was inserted. This was traced to a blank step page related to the custom message, and has been resolved by adding a primary step page at step 10 of the New(Work-) activity to prevent the null-pointer exception on harness reload.

oLog.infoForced has been replaced with oLog.debug in GetAssignmentDetailsInternal to reduce excessive logging

Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.7

The Rest API used by Robotics was generating excessive logging on the application server due toPzGetAssignmentDetailsInternal generating several lines of logs with each REST call. In a high volume system, this can make the logs difficult to utilize. To resolve this, oLog.infoForced has been replaced with oLog.debug.

SR-D42670 · Issue 510185

Force order added to inner join when running a Rules Resolution filter

Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.7

After upgrade, D_getResolvedWorkStatuses was not loading properly due to a Report Definition that used a Filter by Rule Resolution option timing out on the SQL Server. When the Filter by Rule Resolution option is selected in RD, it will generate a rule resolution query with an inner join which can cause a time out on the SQL Server while it tries to find out the join order for tables with multiple joins. To resolve this, the SQL server will provide a Force order, merge inner join hint option by way of an added DSS reporting/useForceOrderHint. Additionally, reporting/useMergeHintForRRquery should be set on Pega-Reporting to set things up for using the Merge Inner join hint in the query.

SR-D21555 · Issue 501107

Resolved command line BIX/PRPCUtils creating unreachable nodes

Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.7

BIX and PRPCUtils scripts were creating nodes that showed as unreachable or that were never cleared. This was traced to a code change that resulted in nodes starting as stream nodes unless given a node type or DSS settings, and has been resolved by setting the asyncExecutor/enable setting value as false in the prconfig.xml. The BIX command line JVM argument should also be set to NodeType=BIX.
