Handling added for disabling weekends when no weekends are available
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.2
A browser exception was generated while selecting the option “Disable weekends”. This was traced to a malformed array of weekends in a scenario where the Data-Admin-Calendar instance had all business days checked (i.e., no weekends). To resolve this, DatePickerAssembly and pzGenerateDatePicker have been updated to handle the case when there are no weekends available in the Data-Admin-Calendar instance.

Style selector workaround added for Internet Explorer 11
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.2
When using UI-Kit 15.0.1 with Microsoft Internet Explorer 11, the responsive behavior of the left navigator was not working as expected, it was not possible to Customize/Style the File Path control completely, and the AutoComplete control and Date Time Controls had a blue border on hover/focus. This was traced to the styles not being correctly selected because they contained the selector "focus-within" which is not supported in this browser. This has been resolved by adding focus-within separately so Internet Explorer will ignore the selector.

Scrolling fixed for moving rows in tables
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.2
After update from Pega 8.4 to Pega 8.6, attempting to move a row on the top to bottom was not working correctly due to the scroll being limited. Moving an item higher worked as expected. Investigation showed if the container format of the grid was None a condition was setting the scroll to top even if it was being scrolled down, and this has been resolved by getting the gridOffsetTop value from the closest table tag and increasing the setInterval time to achieve smooth scroll behavior.

Rule-Service-Java authentication in a stateless session re-enabled
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
When exposing Rule-Service-Java through a service package, a proxy jar file is created. If the 'Requires Authentication' option was checked on the service package, the generated java did not contain the required code to pass through the username/password and authentication failed. This method of passing credentials via proxy method parameters was previously withdrawn for the stateless processing mode, but the java code has been reinstated to enable authentication for a stateless session if this method is desired.

Added support for skipping explicit validation in tabbed screen flow
Resolved in Pega Version Pega Platform, Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
When using a tabbed screen flow harness in the application and uploading a file using the "FilePath" control, there is a check in the post activity of the flow action of the first screen to see if the user has browsed a file. When the user proceeds to the next screen by clicking 'next', the file is validated and attached to the work object. However, if instead of clicking on the Next button the user clicked on the tab to go to the next screen, the validation failed and the file was not attached. This problem was traced to the 'GoToPreviousTask' activity failing to pass the parameter page in this scenario, and has been fixed by adding a new step to update the existing parameter page with necessary parameters to allow validation and attachment when skipping the 'next' button.

Execution plan reuse on SQL Server 2008 R2
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
Due to the way a SQL server treats execution plans, each decimal bind value with a different scale is treated as a different type. To optimize the execution, the scale value for the execution plans will now be set the same as the table definition for obj- methods.

Corrected purging for History and Attachments
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
A problem was found with purging the History and Attachments for cover and folder items. This was traced to history tables using datetime columns as key properties: many databases round these values to less precision than PRPC uses, and the keys did not match. The purgeitems function has been updated to delete the instance specifically and bypass recalculating the InsKey.

Help updated to explain When Rule "ALL" Evaluation behavior
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
A 'when' rule evaluating all pages in page list will only evaluate the properties on pages in the list that contain that property. This may cause a "true" result that does not match customer expectations. The hover help has been clarified to explicitly state that the evaluation results apply only for those pagelist entries where the property exists and not for all the page list entries.

Increased limit for Rule_Obj_CaseType
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
Previously, Rule_Obj_CaseType was encountering a byte limit of 65535 in the JVM that impeded the ability to create a desired large number of coverable work types (54+). The system code has been modified to store the rule types differently to avoid generating extra lines of java code for each coverable case type.

CSS generation fixed for attaching files after validation failure
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
After a validation had failed, uploading a file (through the filePath Control) and submitting the flow action resulted in the page loading with no CSS applied. This has been corrected by changing how the uploading wrapper is applied in cases of validation failure.
