database connection leak resolved
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.1
A database connection leak was traced to the resultset package not being closed if an exception occurred while executing the query. A try/catch has been added to the database.list method so that in the case of an exception, the ResultSetPackager (which was created in the line above the database.list call) will be properly closed. Additional error logging has also been added.

Operator security bypass now available to multitenancy environments
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.1
In Pega 8.1, whenever operator records are imported via a RAP file they are disabled by default for the purpose of increased security. When performing this operation there is an option to bypass this feature so that operators are not disabled upon import, but that bypass was not available in multitenancy environments. To allow or that use, this release includes an enhancement to expose a parameter on PegaRULESMove_Zip_To_DB to support bypassing operator security.

Thread name implementation fixed for FCM use with micro DC
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.1
When attempting to invoke a remote case in the Interaction Manager portal via FCM with the Customer Service for Insurance application which uses micro DC, the case was not invoked and an empty screen was displayed. Invoking the case from the interaction portal resulted in a JavaScript error. Invoking the case from a WSS or directly from the Create button in Designer Studio worked correctly. This was traced to a recent change to the implementation for generating the thread name. Because of this, CRM apps could not load the Federated cases via micro DC. This has been fixed through changes in "pzFCMMashupGadget" to replace the slash with underscore for the FCM thread.

OIDC and authorization_code flow corrected
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.1
The OIDC and authorization_code flow was not working work on the first attempt. This was traced to the server that was performing the OAuth 2.0 authorization_code redirecting straight to the Pega application after successful user authentication instead of returning an authorization code via redirect_uri. As a result, the Pega application was rendered in a external Safari window which is supposed to be used for user authentication only. Second and subsequent attempts to perform the OAuth 2.0 authorization_code flow were successful and the Mobile Client was logged in. This was caused by the unnecessary retainment of state parameters in the OIDC flow, and has been fixed by removing the code that appended the querystring parameters used for the Hybrid Client.

Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.1
Code errors in the Merge Wizard that were causing Null Pointer Exception errors have been fixed, In addition, branch rule sets created through this wizard did not have the 'Application validation' option and rule set pre-requisite filled automatically; the system has been updated so the version prerequisite will be the highest existing ruleset version in the ruleset.

Assignment locking smoothed for slow network async requests
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
In situations with slow network async Ajax requests, locking was not being properly released between requests. This caused an issue with sub-flows that had a Spinoff Flow configured to route the assignments in the sub-process and the main process to separate operators. In order to resolve this, the close tab process has been updated to remove the corresponding thread and release the lock.

Localization added for currency values using commas vs decimal points
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
Excel within PRPC was not properly localizing for the use of decimal and comma as thousand and decimal separators for decimal/double currency property values, a use that is common in non-English installations. The records editor has been changed to support localization for properties of type double and decimal.

Enhanced error handling for WebSphere class conflicts
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
An error caused by a class conflict issue in WebSphere was being generated when exporting Process Flow as XPDL. In order to clarify the limitations in this use, changes have been made to the XSLTRANSLATE Activity to add an extra catch that handles any style sheet errors explicitly and provides an informative error message.
