BulkMover updated to not treat Numerics as strings
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.4
When attempting to update Pega platform 8.1.1 to 8.1.3 with Oracle on a Windows machine with German locale using the out-of-place upgrade of the rules schema, the migration failed at the migration step with the error message "ORA-01722: Ungültige Zahl". This was traced to BulkMover failing when trying to convert a string to a Numeric due to the locale using commas as the decimal separator, and has been resolved by updating BulkMover to not treat Numerics as strings.

Rule lock is released after alternate approved operator rejects it
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.4
When using the rule check-in approval process, if a rule check-in candidate was rejected by an approved operator other than the one who checked it in, the lock on the original rule was not released. This has been corrected so the lock is released after the rule is rejected in the case worker portal.

Discard changes dialog now showing for local actions
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.7
After having modified case data without saving and clicking on a menu entry (left menu, search, ...), the system shows a dialog box to ask the user to confirm it is ok to discard changes. However, this confirmation dialog did not work with local actions, leading users to lose their work without any warning nor any way to step back. This was traced to a difference in the dirty form check, which was not present when launching a local action from a case. An enhancement has now been added to the handleMenuAction js function in pypega_ui_harnessactions.js which will perform a dirty form check with a prompt.
