Handling added for Address Map control in Microsoft Internet Explorer 11
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
Microsoft Internet Explorer 11 does not support Class, async, await and arrowed functions due to not implementing the necessary EC6 features. This caused Address Map Control to not work in this browser because pypega_map_googlegis js creates a js class. To resolve this issue, alternate methods have been added for use with Microsoft Internet Explorer 11.

Parameterized data pages updated on record change
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
Changing source data page records without changing the parameter value was not updating parametrized data pages. This has been resolved by updating the system so the parametrized data page populator function is now called every time the page is accessed.

Mobile barcode scan sets value with correct context
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
After implementing a list of items where each has a unique barcode, scanning the barcodes using the mobile app worked correctly the first time but subsequent scans were setting the value on the first element of the list and missing the context of the current scan position. This has been resolved with an update to ensure the scan barcode action sets the value on the correct property when using repeating dynamic layers.

Offline.Rulecache UI module capacity increased
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
Clicking the save button on a modal window caused the application to freeze and all the buttons were disabled. This was traced to the pega.offline.rulecache UI module having a default hard limit of 500 rules. Once the hard limit was reached, the system intermittently silently refused caching additional rules depending on the amount of rules packaged or the order in which the rules are loaded to the cache. To resolve this, the system has been updated to only log a console warning once the maximum threshold is reached, allowing the application to operate normally and at the time inform about the potential impact of having too many rules in memory.

Handling added to process Actions chunks on multiple nodes
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
If the synching of chunks to a node was interrupted, attempting to resume the remaining chunks resulted in a processing issue if the Load Balancer passed the connection to a different node than was used for the first connection. As an example, if chunks were synched to node "A" and the restarted sync saved the remaining chunks to node "B", when all chunks were synced node "B" incorrectly determined node "A" was actually doing the work and skipped the processing of the chunks on node "B". This resulted in queued chunks being left untouched. To resolve this, the logic has been updated to allow multiple nodes to process the chunks.

Documentation updated for accents and special characters used in search
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
The "Pega search API" article has been updated to reflect that the search functionality in Pega Platform does not match accented words with unaccented. For example, searching for santé and sante will retrieve different results. In addition, Domain Specific Language (DSL) includes special characters for use when searching, for example '-', '_', '!', '@'. However, the system retrieves various results depending on the way the special characters are used in the search query. If the query contains special characters that are not escaped, the system may retrieve incorrect results. For example, not escaping the slash mark in the 25/02 query may cause the system to ignore the special character.

Logic updated to allow page property and declare index with the same name
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
A Property which was in a page list which in turn was embedded in a Page was not visible in the Report Browser. This was traced to the two properties sharing the same name, and was caused by a check which ensured only entries with unique names were added. In order to support this configuration, logic has been added to pzAddPropListForClass_TreeGrid such that if a page property and declare index share the same name, they are both added to the tree grid.

Parameter added to prevent name localization in Dev Studio Reports
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
Running the DataTableEditorReport against a customer table translated names that matched localized values, such as "Mr. Block" became "Mr. Sperren" when the locale was set to de_DE even though the property was marked as "Do not localize" in UI Controls in the report definition filter. To resolve this, the parameter 'pyskiplocalization' has been added for use in the RRFilters_logic and while displaying the select Values popup.

Queue processor correctly moves items to Broken Items
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
When an exception occurred while Queue Processor processed an item, he queue item was not moved to Broken Items. The error " inconsistent datatypes: expected - got CLOB DatabaseException caused by prior exception" was generated. This has been resolved by modifying the NativeSQL builder and NativeSQLBatchExecutor to allow the batch of queries to be retried. Additional changes were also added for Oracle databases to identify the correct column types.
