Older button visibility conditions retained after upgrade
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
After migration, older button controls set to visibility "ALWAYS" and when condition "canPerform" became visibility "WHEN" and when condition "canPerform". To resolve this, the logic for the activity Embed-Harness-Section!UpgradeOnOpen has been updated to check for "VISIBILITY" first before "visible when" to retain the proper settings.

Smoothed post-upgrade ApplicationSetup that uses previously generated LDAP configs
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
An LDAP configuration created under a previous version of the software was generating an NPE after upgrading. This was traced to step2 of the ApplicationSetup activity where the system was expecting a page which was missing at that point due to the user not yet being fully identified. To avoid this, a step has been added to check if the page is available and avoid the NPE.

Resolved Connect SOAP header mapping issue
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
In the Connect SOAP rule, a Request tab configured with a Request Header field using XML Stream option was missing the PEGA tag in the generated SOAP header. This was caused by an error in the Axis stack and has been corrected to ensure all elements defined in the MapFrom XML rule are correctly generated.

Cache clearing corrected for muti-tenant environments
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
A problem with the caching system in a multi-tenant environment led to a situation where a change in a rule in the shared layer did not invalidate that rule's entry in the tenants' rule cache. This was caused by the clearing of the cache not being fully propagated to all tenants, and the system has been updated to ensure the SMA clear cache fully clears all shared and tenant instances.

Resolved installation errors for DB2 Z/OS with WebSphere
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
A problem was encountered while installing split schema on a DB2 z/OS system with WebSphere. This was caused by an erroneous system setting where the ports to the DB2 database were not open in this environment. While the Admin could correct the environment to open the ports and allow the application server node to connect to the DB2 database, this has been changed in the software to default to the correct settings.

Datetime properties format improved for backwards compatibility
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
After upgrading, the search API was returning datetime properties in an incorrect format, causing a page error that was sometimes visible to an end user. The error only occurred if additional processing was happening in that page that caused the validation dictionary to launch. The root cause of this problem was a backwards compatibility defect related to Elastic Search, and it has been corrected.

Preview Included Section corrected for Case Manager portal
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
The Section Include preview feature was implemented with support in the Developer Studio, but was found to not be working as expected in the Case Manager Portal. This was due to a wrong 'if' condition for span identification, and the system has been updated.

Tuned handling for child requestors in unauthenticated listener services
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
While executing Queue instruction through JMS listener service, the error "Rule Not Found" was logged. This exception was due to a child requestor invoking the queue activity using the PegaRULES application instead of the current application. This was a side effect of changes made to the Service API which set the requestor authentication to true when the service package is unauthenticated, a change made to run activities that have enabled 'require authentication'. However, the credentials were not passed; the requestor was authenticated and the child requestor created was still unauthenticated, causing this issue. To resolve this, the system will set the access group from Service layer.

Operators and Access Groups are now automatically force re-indexed during import
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
If a number of new OperatorIDs were created and added to two workgroups and then the changes were exported, the new OperatorIDs were present when the file was imported to other environments but a query run against the table PR_INDEX_OPERATOR_WORKGROUP did not incorporate the new IDs. While there was a workaround of manually forcing a re-index during import to fully incorporate the new IDs, the Operators and Access Groups are now automatically force re-indexed during import to ensure data is up to date.

Revised max datetime value for validation
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
Previously, a date property could have a max set value of 31-Dec-9999. This max date was not working in some time zones due to the input date being converted to GMT for internal operations. This meant that 31-Dec-9999 in some locales was getting converted to 1-Jan-10000GMT, which then failed validation. To correct this, the datetime validity logic has been changed to use "1st Jan 00:00:00.000 10000 GMT" for validation.
