Popovers properly attached to elements while scrolling

Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8

Account overlay popups were fixed to the screen, causing the popover to not be attached to its associated element while scrolling. This has been resolved with the addition of the needed scroll handlers.

Correct very large decimal number rounding error

Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8

Rounding errors were seen in a text input field for decimal property configured to round to 2 decimal places and format with comma group separators if more than 15 digits were entered. The first time the focus moved out of the field, the rounding was correct. After clicking save, which performed a reloadSection with activity SaveAndContinue (form save), the value was rounded incorrectly. This was an issue with the ability of javascript to handle large decimal numbers as type number, and has been resolved by changing the handling to be of type string.

Updated attachment popover handling for IE

Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8

After configuring a button consisting of two events, 1. On click --> View Attachment and 2. Hover --> Show Smart info, an attachment popup opened whenever the button was clicked, and moving the cursor out minimized the attachment. To resolve this, dismiss callback logic has been added in popover close for use with IE.

DSS added to handle merges with lower versions of Postgres

Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1

After update, executing the batch campaign with volume constraint resulted in the second data flow DF_Wait failing with error message "ERROR: number of columns (1844) exceeds limit (1664)". This was due to the database set’s change (in 8.5) to use the database layer’s merge statement. Prior to that, the logic used "deletes and inserts". Depending on the version of Postsgres, the generated SQL statement for a merge statement is different. The “INSERT … ON CONFLICT … UPDATE” syntax is generated for Postgres 9.5+ AND when there is a PK constraint defined for the DB table. Otherwise, the complex UPSERT statement (old syntax) is generated, as was the case in this issue. This is a known issue in the Postgres server software where it mis-interprets the number of columns involved. i.e., it mistakenly counts the number of columns twice. As a result, the actual maximum columns allowed is only half of the official limit (1664). The same UPSERT statement does not cause the “exceeds limit” exception if there are 832 or fewer columns in the statement. To resolve this, an option has been provided to select between the “original logic” (deletes and inserts) and the “merge statements” logic by way of the DSS “decision/datasets/db/useMergeStatementForUpdates”. Setting “true” will use the merge statement logic, and setting “false” will use deletes and inserts. When the DSS is not defined, the default is "true" and the system will use merge statements in the form preferred by Postgres 9.5+.

Iteration method updated for SetRequiredSkillsCountColumn

Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1

After update, database utilization spiked and did not drop. Investigation traced this to the use of Local.totalCount in pzSetRequiredSkillsCountColumn, which caused the iteration loop to run more times than necessary. This has been resolved by replacing Local.totalCount with Local.iterationsCount in the iteration.

Improved accessibility for Disclosable Documents/attach files/auto selection dropdowns

Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1

When using Dragon for accessibility, issues were seen when trying to select different options in the dropdowns related to attaching multiple files. This was caused by the legacy grids being used not supporting this type of accessibility functionality, and has been resolved by updating pzAttachFileDDFileList to use an optimized table instead.

Field Level Audit updated to handle hierarchical properties

Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1

Field Audit was not working for the first change of the data selected/provided for a field. The audit was only reflected after the second change was made. When the property involved a series of hierarchies, for example pageprop.pagelist(1).pageprop, the FLA objects will initially use deferred saves and the generated pzinskeys will be added to a savedFLAMap object. However, when the last pageprop was not eligible to save, all the deferred saves of earlier records were cancelled but the inskeys were not removed from the savedFLAMap object. Because of this, the parent FLA records were assumed to have been saved already when those saves were actually deferred. This was a missed use case for hierarchical properties, and has been resolved by adding an update to remove the inskeys from the savedFLAMap object so that in the subsequent property change the audit's FLA records for the parent properties (pageprop.pagelist(1)) will be saved again.

GetChildcases handling updated for large numbers of cases

Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1

When a very high number of child cases being processed contained a wait shape that was dependent on the movement of a parent case, some of the cases were moved to the next step of the flow automatically while others required a manual command to ResumeFlow. In extreme cases where many child cases were waiting, a node crash could occur. This was traced to the pzGetChildcases report having a maximum value of 500 lines, and has been resolved by increasing the maximum number of rows to retrieve to 9999 in the Data Access Tab of the pzGetChildCases report definition. In addition, the pxCheckFlowDependencies activity has been modified to perform with a higher number of cases, and DSS(MaxRecords) logic has been added to split the child cases into multiple queue items for each access group to decrease load on each thread process.
