Fixed ability to use 'disable work processing' in the dashboard
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
Setting 'disable work processing' to true caused an NPE when opening a modal window via a Local action from dashboard (assign page class). This was caused by the process attempting to assign properties from a null page, and has been corrected.

Enabling out-of-the-box Security Policies now redirects immediately
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
When enabling out-of-the-box Security Policies, it was not immediately redirecting to the change password screen but instead requiring the timeout interval to expire before redirect happened. This has been corrected.

Custom root certificate support added to Connect-REST
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
Configuring a Connect-HTTP/REST rule that connects to a server using custom root certificates caused the error "javax.net.ssl.SSLPeerUnverifiedException". To remedy this, REST / HTTP now supports the merging of custom and jvm trust stores and runtime support for SSL in REST connectors.

Added tenantID checking for multi-tenant import of access groups
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
When attempting to overwrite an existing access group by importing the Client Access groups in the tenant layer, an error was generated and the access groups were not overwritten. This occurred when the SQLs were not Tenant-qualifying for operator records but were being imported into a tenant; as a result, operator record updates were marked as inserts. To correct this, the behavior has been updated to query for current tenantId and always tenant-qualify the query if it's an overridable instance and not in a shared context.

Page names for specialty components correctly generated as JSON
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
When using a specialty component that accepts input parameters of type page list, the necessary page list parameter names were not being passed as a JSON object due to the system's inability to reference each of them. To correct this, logic has been added to create page name in cases of page list.

Problems exporting Requirements/Specifications to Excel using JBOSS 6.1
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
When using the JBOSS 6.1 EAP Application server, exporting Requirements/Specifications to Excel using the 'Export to Excel' action generated the message "Error in parsing Excel file". This was caused by a change in the JBOSS class loading mechanism that resulted in a class cast exception due to multiple class loaders loading the same class from different sources. The handling of .jar files has been tuned to ensure proper class loading.

Smoothed handling of rulesets with duplicate names
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
When doing a "Save As" of a rule, the ruleform converts the entry in the description field to uppercase. If there is already a previous version of the rule with a name in lowercase, it was possible for the rule to exist with both a lowercase and uppercase name. While Rule Resolution worked, this case difference could cause a scenario where not all versions of the rule were visible when doing a rule search, viewing rule history, or looking up previous versions of the rule. The rule retrieval logic previously used RuleName; to ensure proper rules are being picked up, this has been changed to use the rule ID.

Corrected Connect-Java ability to run in parallel
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
Using connect-java in RunInParallel mode was failing with the error "couldn't resolve the required java object". This was found to be an error in copying objects from the primary page in RunInParallel mode that did not properly retain the references for the Java wrapper objects. There was a workaround to use the "If possible, use a valid object handle" option, but this error has been fixed.

Enhanced keyboarding accessibility
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
Several enhancements were made to improve accessibility. While developing an application for visually impaired users who use the keyboard (rather than mouse) to navigate the screen, it was found that certain input elements did not correctly receive focus under IE8 when tabbing. One issue was that when an element is focused and the parent element is scrollable, the focused element was not being displayed if it was beyond the scroll area. Additionally, some elements were not receiving visual focus with WAI ruleset enabled upon focus. To aid in keyboard navigation, if the WAI ruleset is used, an element receiving focus will also be made visible by scrolling to its position. When the accessibility ruleset is enabled, all elements will now properly receive visual focus. In order to enhance the accessibility of dropdowns in Audit windows, Filter panel width has been increased in Accessibility Mode to display all the dropdowns in the window at once without requiring use of the scroll bar. Furthermore, Accessibility mode for Audit windows has been updated to include the use of the spacebar to toggle settings in the checkboxes.
