Code fragment removed to resolve CookieDisabledException
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
After upgrade, a CookieDisabledException occurred after a post activity was invoked in the single sign-on (SSO) authentication service. This was traced to the site using the deprecated flag "redirectguests" as part of SSO-based login for mashup usecases. This flag was used to check if a cookiedisabled exception was thrown or not, and if there was no cookie, if a requestor was authenticated in first request. However, the flag has been removed as part of work done to omit the Cookie support check on Mobile App UAs. Code that supported the use of this flag remained after that work and led to the exception being generated, but has now been removed as well.

Repository document deletion modified for better cleanup
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
When using documents functionality, creating and uploading a document properly stored it, but deleting the document did not remove the associated files from storage. Whenever a document is created that has a file, instances Of Link-Attachment and Data-WorkAttach-File are also created. Previously, when the document was deleted, the associated instances and actual file were not deleted from the repositories but rather marked as Resolved-Withdrawn and hidden at the UI level. The system has now been updated so that when a document is deleted, the document attachment will also be deleted from all places like list, Tile, and document View, and reference instances like Link-Attachment and Data-WorkAttach-File instance will also be removed along with the actual file from the repository.

Column formatting default added to Export to Excel to match Export to PDF
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
After running the pyGetWorkHistory report in Designer Studio, exporting the report to PDF showed the correct data format for the Message Key column while exporting to Excel did not. In the Report Definition UI and in Export to PDF (which use the same logic), when the backing property of a column has no control and the column does not have a format, the control falls back to a "Default" control. The "Default" control localized the string values in the Report Definition UI and Export to PDF, therefore changing the Message Key to be the correct value in those places. The similar logic to explicitly handle the "no control" scenario has now also been added to Export to Excel to resolve this issue.

Corrected viewing of sorted drill-down spreadsheet-style summary reports
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
When using a report with a summarized column and the 'Do not display group headings' grouping option checked, drill down was not working when the report was primarily sorted by default on any column other than the first one. This manifested as either no results returned by the drill down report or an error message related to invalid filter values. This was traced to the unique column ordering logic for non-spreadsheet-style summary reports being applied to the drilldown of spreadsheet-style summary reports due to the logic for creating the drilldown filters using the != operator to compare the spreadsheet flag string to the string constant "true". This previously worked as expected because this string was interned in the engine, but these string internments have since been removed. To correct this, pzPopulateReport has been updated to appropriately recognize spreadhseet-style summary reports as they used to.

Alphabetical sort function restored to Legacy Report Browser
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
When the new report browser was introduced in Pega Platform 8.1 the sorting functionality was changed to sort by update time instead of the previous behavior of sorting alphabetically. This change to the logic behind sorting reports ended up applying not only to the new report browser but to the legacy report browser as well, eliminating the ability to use an alphabetized sort for both. This fix re-adds the functionality to sort reports alphabetically by adding selectable sorting capability to the legacy report browser that enables switching between sorting reports by update time and sorting alphabetically.

Report name in tab uses localization
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
After creating a field value with field name as pyCaption to localize the report definition name, the title in the report definition tab was not translated. This was traced to Step 1 of the activity displayReport using an old localization function, and has been resolved by changing the localization of document title to use pyCaption.

RRDisplaySection made available to assist Edge compatibility
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
When the Pega Platform was being used with Microsoft Internet Explorer Compatibility Mode ON, it was not possible to use the select filter gadget due to a browser compatibility issue: enabling the filter condition for the report definition caused the SelectValues button to stick in loading mode when clicked. Changing the Microsoft Internet Explorer Document Mode for Harness pzRRDisplaySection to IE=Edge corrected the issue, but the rule was final. To resolve this, the pzRRDisplaySection has been made available to allow override for customers still using Microsoft Internet Explorer.

Handlign added for Japanese half-space character during DB query
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
After creating a Report Definition based on the Unicode/Japanese text property with summary list, the list was visible from Report viewer but any full size space used by the summary filter was unintentionally trimmed to half size space. As a result, the database query could not find the item. This has been resolved by modifying the setGroupByInputs API in the pega_report_summary js file to use the unicode space char(\u0020) instead of \s in regex. The Japanese space character will be replaced in the pzDrillDownReport activity step 2 for the query use, and will be set back to the Japanese space character in pyFilterValue.

FusionCharts upgraded to resolve drill down issues
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
Drill down reports were not working when the results were displayed with huge data that came up with a scroll bar or if the report was scrolled down and a drill down was attempted when the scroll bar was in the bottom or middle of the scroll line. The hover icon was different i.e., the hand icon was replaced with arrow icon, or sometimes the hand icon displayed without showing the data. It was possible to drill down when the scroll bar was in the top or the focus was moved outside the chart and brought back in again. This was traced to bugs in the FusionChart libraries, and has been resolved by upgrading to FusionCharts 3.14.0-sr.1.
