Missing hyphen auto-added to base class by import wizard
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
When running the Connector & Metadata wizard to import the XSD file, entering the base class name without a dash created classes and properties all concatenated with the class name. However entering a dash at the end of the base class name created properties separated with the dash from the class names. This was an error in the wizard - it is no longer mandatory to end the abstract class with a dash, and the code has been updated to correctly append the hyphen at the end of baseclass if one doesn't exist.

Accessibility enhancement added to case manager portal
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
Some key areas incuding the search field were missing ARIA roles when the landmark menu on the case manager portal was brought up while using NVDA / JAWS screen reader. To remedy this, the landmark menu has been provided with a search field to quickly navigate to search field in Case Manager portal in accessibility mode. A future enhancement is planned for adding ARIA roles to auto generated sections.

Updated flow default for SAE-I course
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
The PRPC: System Architect Essentials I training course shows how to create draft process outlines. An SAE exercise where Stage "Decision" has steps "Background Check" and "Assess Candidate" which run in parallel was not working as expected. The first step is an assignment, and the second is a multi-step process with a decision shape which points to a decision tree. If that decision shape referenced an undefined decision record, the process would not execute and there was no way to proceed with the case. This was traced to the DRAFTMODECHOICE flow rule in which "Process commander internal flow" was checked by default. This was not the preferred work flow behavior, and the default is now to leave "Process Commander Internal Flow" unchecked so the flow is not marked as internal. In addition, the instructions for DraftModeChoice assignment were modified to reflect this change.

Stream XML generation and runtime handling enhanced for optional nodes in schema
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
When a stream rule was executed using connect-SOAP and blank data was passed from the UI, a tag corresponding to the XML element marked as optional was being generated. This resulted in those optional properties being unexpectedly created in source systems. To change this, the generation of the Stream XML rule has been enhanced such that at runtime it ignores optional nodes/attributes mapped to properties which do not exist or which have an empty value. NOTE: this new behavior in Stream XML rule generation is effective only with the below DSS configuration (to avoid backward compatibility issues ): Owning Ruleset : Pega-IntegrationEngine Purpose : StreamXML/DetectEmptyProperties Value : true

Local List now supports '+'
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
The '+' character was not being supported in Local List. This was traced to the Ajax post request converting the '+' character to a space, and code has been added to preserve the '+' character.

Localization improved for Lithuania
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
If the localization was set to Lithuania, using a property of type Date with a control pxDateTime and configuring its display mode to Dropdown Lists only allowed 'month' to be selected rather than the whole date. In addition, the three letter month abbreviations were ambiguous, using "Rug" for both Rugpjutis (August) and Rugsejis (September) rather than Rgp and Rgs. These issues have been fixed.

Dynamic container enhanced for harness sections
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
In some situations, tab visibility conditions were not functioning as expected. For example, in a portal with a harness that has 2 sections, the click of an enable/disable button in the top section was configured to refresh the bottom section as well as call an activity. The bottom section had a tab layout containing harness rules with conditions specified for the tab visibility based on the above "Enable/Disable" button. For the above features, the data model got created when the Dynamic Container was being rendered for the portal's harness, and the data model was updated with the dynamic tabs' meta data. However, the data model was not being created while rendering the harness, and the lower section did not confirm to expectations. To resolve this, the code has been updated to handle the section refresh which has a Dynamic Container.

Resolved checkout conflicts with discarded rule edits
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
After a private edit of a work flow rule in the tenant layer, discarding that rule and then trying to do another Private Edit on the same rule generated the error "Status: **Check out failed. A checked out version with the same keys already exists. Please check-in that record first. This was traced to an issue with the clipboard retaining the discarded rule, and has been corrected.

Updated sorting and filtering icons to work with JAWS
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
As filtering and sorting did not use labels, JAWS was not announcing icon names without labels. This resulted in JAWS not announcing the filter list, that a column was sortable, the presence of a filter icon, or whether a column was sorted ascending or descending. This was due to the "ARIA" attributes not being generated without PegaWAI ruleset1, and the system has been updated to enhance the accessibility.

ParseXmlObjectWrapperAssembler updated to handle embedded pages
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
Parse XML rule compilation was failing if the Pages and Classes tab of Parse XML rule included an embedded page. This was traced to an assembler issue and ParseXmlObjectWrapperAssembler has been updated to resolve compilation issues in case of named pages.
