Updated FieldLevelAuditing logic for page comparison
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Optimistic locking was resulting in orphan assignments and the error "Error: Flow Not At Task, Error: Flow Removed". In addition, Get Next Work was causing duplicate Field Level Auditing records. This was traced to a missed use case in the logic used in pxFieldLevelAuditing where previousPage and PrimaryPage are compared to see whether they are equal or not, and has been resolved by adding one more condition to mark previousPage as null when the update date time or commit date time are not updated as part of processing.

Validation error message corrected for delegated SLA rule
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When delegating any SLA rule to a Business user like the Manager Access group, editing it from the Case Manager portal did not give an option to configure seconds in that available text field (label hh:mm) even though the validation error stated that the time needed to be in hh:mm:ss format. The pzDelegatedSLAGoal, pzDelegatedSLADeadline and pzDelegatedSLAPassedDeadline sections do not include seconds field, which is a difference from Designer Studio (hh:mm:ss). For this update, the validation error message has been corrected to indicate only hh:mm is used while delegating the SLA rule. An enhancement is planned in a future version to support the hh:mm:ss format for this use.

Updates to displaying embedded images in cases
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Sending an email with an embedded image to the email ID associated with the email listener successfully created the interaction case, but the embedded image was not displayed when the case was opened from the work-basket. A rule-not found exception was seen in the tracer for pyGetImageDisplay, the rule responsible for displaying the images in the ET pane. Investigation showed that when URLObfuscation was turned on, the decryption of the URL was not successful because "&" had been encoded to '& amp;'. This has been resolved by calling the activity pyGetImageForDisplay using URLMapping instead. An additional issue was seen with displaying images in the email interaction pane where the additional empty new lines moved the image outside the intended place. This was traced to a customization for the reply area which used the pyHighlightedMessage property and converted newlines to br tags even in HTML mode. To resolve this, pyHighlightedMessage has ben modified to convert newlines to br tags only if the mode is plain text.

Correct Email Bot training text highlighted
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When a piece of text was selected and tagged against an entity while training the Email Bot, the entity selection was misplaced and partially covered the actual text selected. The incorrect selection was then carried forward to the training data spreadsheet. To resolve this, rule changes have been made that will update HTML entities to HTML encoded forms.

Email bot updated to handle negative and positive feedback on the same text
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When positive and negative training was done on the same piece of text, text extraction by Email Bot failed. For example, when using the sentence. “John Smith plays cricket”, the bot detects “John” as person name. If user wants to train the bot to detect “John Smith” as the entity, the user needs to first remove “John” and build the model, and then select “John Smith” and build the model again. In this case, the email bot never again detects “John Smith” as person name due to the negative feedback given for “John”. This was traced to the entities having same the startIndex/endIndex, and has been resolved by removing entities of the same modelName which have the pyIsRemoved property as true so that multiple entity models are detected on the same word.

Resolved exception from isArchived
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
After update, the message "ERROR - Could not retrieve the database time" was seen. This was traced to the interactions of the isArchived API with a version of Oracle, and has been resolved by adding code to skip the isArchived() API call if pzIsPegaCloud is set to false.

Removed redundant Microsoft Outlook email interaction chain
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When opening an email interaction case, the email editor user interface area showed the complete email chain of the email for every new message that came in related to the case. This was traced to the difference in the selectors that various email clients use to construct a response to an email with email history in it, and has been resolved by updating the selectors for Microsoft Outlook in pyRichTextEmailHistorySelector so no conversation is repeated when using that client.
