SR-D50144 · Issue 513684

Dynamic RTE support added to Word document generation

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1

Pega document generation from a Word template was not properly replacing field codes in the document header or footer and failed to render images embedded in rich text fields. An enhancement has now been added to pzGenerateDocument which will support dynamic content from RTE.

Discard changes dialog now showing for local actions

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1

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.

Thread cleanup improved for application switching to resolve skin issue

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1

After opening a Case from the HR application and then switching to another application to open another case, the Review Harness skin control was not loading correctly. This was traced to a thread cleanup issue relating to the Portal: on application switch, the system should clean up all threads created on the current application before switching to new application, but in this case thread cleanup was not happening as expected due to conflicts in the unload event handling. This has been corrected.

Email Discussion Thread retains Formatting

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1

CSS styles were not being retained in the discussion thread when replying to InboundCorrespondence cases. This was traced to a missing value in Param.latestReply activity pzCreateExternalPostFromMail, and has been resolved by setting an initial plain text value to the param.latestReply before it is set with the HTML value. This prevents having a blank parameter value if the incoming HTML value is empty.

ChatMashup loading issue with IDP resolved

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1

When using a harness containing chat scripts via Mashup that called an activity to set parameters, attempting to launch the Mashup from an external application failed on the first attempt: an incorrect URL was generated and the activity was not triggered, resulting in an empty harness. The second attempt to launch the Mashup worked as expected. This was seen when using an IDP initiated Login with query string - pyActivity= classname.ActivityName, and there was a workaround to use SP initiated login or to use the activity URL directly on the IDP portal. Investigation showed that the resourcePath was coming as http in SSL enabled system, but the reqURI was still https. To correct this, the system has been updated so that if the reqContextURI starts with https and the requestURL starts with http, then the requestURL will be converted to https.

Resolved command line BIX/PRPCUtils creating unreachable nodes

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1

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.

DASS added to allow toggle of indexpurpose filter in declare index join

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1

A performance issue was seen when using a declare index join to add a pxIndexPurpose filter to a very large index_workparty table, either taking a long time to process a search request or intermittently timing out. This was traced to recent modifications in the DeclareIndex Join filter conditions to better handle multiple declare index rules pointing to the same index table, As a result, doing a declare index join on one of the declare indexes returned results that included those that corresponded to other declare index rules. To resolve this, a DASS has been provided to toggle the inclusion of the indexpurpose filter in a declare index join to allow for better customization.

SR-D22075 · Issue 501343

Wild card character escape added for filtering data records

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1

It was not possible to export data type records which were filtered with either _ or % in the value. This was due to the characters being wild card characters in the SQL-like operator, and has been resolved by modifying the NativeSQLAPIResolver to add escapecharacter to the runtime value of the filter.

SR-D22468 · Issue 504393

Bix extract performance improved by only checking cipher type for encrypted properties

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1

Previously, if no cipher was configured in extract Rules the cipher type defaulted to null and wasn't cached. This caused performance issues when running against the database. In order to improve performance, the code has been modified to only check for cipher type if the property is encrypted.
