DateTime dropdown control will retain entry on validation error
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.6
For a Date Time control with display mode as dropdownlist, choosing just a month or a day from the dropdown and refreshing the section resulted in an invalid date validation and the field being set to the current date. Choosing the date from the calendar icon or filling in all three drop downs worked as expected. This has been resolved by updating the datetime control so that if a dropdown mode with property as type DATE has a validation error on refresh action, the user-entered data will show in the dropdown instead of the current date/time.

Corrected error message display in right-to-left locales
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.6
When using the standard report definition view in the Arabic (ar_AR) locale, error messages for a filter condition were displayed with an incorrect extended horizontal scroll bar with white space. This was traced to the legacy popover styling causing an issue with locales that display text from right to left, and has been resolved by setting the default overlay left to 0PX for these locales.

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.

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+.
