Hidden filters will not be shown on the resulting report
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.6
After setting up a Report Definition to be visible in report browser with all filters hidden, editing and saving the report resulted in the filter values being visible on the report. This has been resolved by modifying pzResolveCopyFilters activity so that If the filter view option is "Read only, allow no changes" and "Filter not visible in Viewer", it will skip copying the filter values on to the report definition page.

Multiple-nodes rebuild LibraryMetadata to ensure all RUFs are present on change
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.6
When performing a complete Application import into a clean installation, references to certain Rule-Utility-Functions went unresolved during the initial assembly. Investigation showed that after introducing a new Rule-Utility-Library or Rule-Utility-Function on one node in a cluster and then generating that, the other nodes in the cluster did not have the correct LibraryMetaDataCache for that RUL. Therefore, assemblies on those other nodes could throw a runtime UnresolvedAssemblyError. This has been resolved by modifying the way the Library subsystem processes the node changes events for Library Generation, to ensure that each node completely rebuilds the LibraryMetadata for that RUL so it contains all the RUFs.

Updated report widget drilldown logic for better non-ASCII character support
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.6
When a report in the report widget had a drilldown chart with a parameter containing certain non-ASCII characters, no entries for the drilldown filter were shown even when there was data that matched that filter. This was traced to the drilldown JavaScript for dashboard report widgets encoding the drilldown parameter twice, causing characters that were Unicode but not ASCII to be corrupted. This has been resolved by updating the logic for pzpega_chart_legacydrilldown.js and pzpega_control_actions_reportdefinition.js to ensure the parameter is not encoded twice.

Handling added for runtime exception on upgrade due to inaccessible external schema mapping
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.6
If a system used external schema mapping, attempts to upgrade were failing with the error "Caused by: com.pega.pegarules.pub.database.ConfigurationException: Unable to obtain data source "java:comp/env/jdbc/PegaRULES", as it is undefined". This was traced to configuring external DADNs which were not accessible from the server where the upgrade was being run: an upgrade will fail if it cannot connect to an external datasource even if no changes need to be made to that datasource. However, because a PRRuntimeException was unexpectedly being thrown instead of a Database Exception, the exception was not properly caught and handled. This has been corrected.

Support added for custom JVC arguments for Cassandra
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.6
An enhancement has been added to support specifying custom JVM arguments for Cassandra. This allows uses such as enabling GC logging for cloud deployments, or to increase the native transport queue size for read-heavy deployments.

Case Dependency corrected for different access groups
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
Creating a queue item as part of the case dependency was not working as expected when the access groups of the dependent cases were different. Investigation showed that in this scenario, the logic was looping differently and the DependencyList page in pxCheckFlowDependencies was getting removed. To resolve this, the DependencyList page has been moved so it is processed inside the DependencyList.pxResults loop.

Locking settings enabled for circumstanced case types
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
Optimistic locking options were not present for a circumstanced case type, and the option to select the "Lock parent case when an action is performed on this case" check box was not available. However, when the parent case type was enabled with optimistic locking, a circumstanced child case could inherit a lock from its parent. Because "Lock parent case when an action is performed on this case" was not enabled on the circumstanced child case type, trying to update the parent case from the child case and save the parent case resulted in a "Lock not held on parent" error. This was a missed use case, and has been resolved by enabling locking settings in Case Designer for circumstanced case types.

Refresh works for nested lists
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
After creating Pagelist A with another Pagelist within (B), a section was created with a repeating dynamic layout to display Pagelist A and a button was added with action set to refresh this section. In the embedded section of the repeating dynamic layout, a nested repeating dynamic layout was created for Pagelist B and a button was set to refresh this section. When using this configuration, the refresh was returning the actionID for Pagelist A regardless of which button was used. To resolve this, an update has been made which will iterate over the stack and append the individual indexes to the encoded value in the pzAPICreateJsonForField function.

Code updated for bulk actions buttons
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
After update, hovering over the "Filter case" button in pzBullkUpdate and the "Create" and "Clear" buttons in pzBulkAddActions caused them to disappear. The warning "This button generates markup that was used to support the older browsers. It is recommended that you update it to the newer markup" was shown, and an update code button appeared. Some custom rules exhibited the same behavior initially, but worked as expected after updating the code and saving them. This has been resolved by updating the buttons in pzBulkUpdate and pzAddBulkActions with the latest UI technologies used for button control codes.
