Report definition performance improvement
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
Performance issues were seen with the pzOperatorsByWorkGroup report definition. This was traced to the report definition is adding an UPPER function for edit filter properties which caused it to take more time to run when combined with an ignore case check in the filters of the Report Definition. This has been corrected.

Added handling for validation after inactivity
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
A Validate rule was configured to add an error to a field if MyPageList had any page where MyProperty was not empty. The rule worked correctly if there was no pause in using the UI, but if the UI was left for a few minutes and then the field was changed, the Validate rule always evaluated the expression to true. This has been resolved by adding a null check in Utilities.countInPageList() function.

Handling added for new case type using reuse case life cycle
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
Creating a new Case Type in a branch ruleset using the 'Reuse case life cycle' option was not working, and the error "branch rulseset not a candidate" was generated. pxCreateCaseDataPages that are called as part of creating a case rely on Param.RuleSetName; generally this parameter is set in the param page when other assets are created. When Reuse case life cycle was selected, other assets were not created and param.RuleSetname was not set. This affected pxCreateCaseDataPages when branch parameter was provided. This was a missed use case, and has been resolved by setting param.RuleSetName from param.ruleset to fix the issue.

Handling added for UI overlap issue

Application wizard security updated
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
A user having PegaRULES:User1 role only was able to run the Create Application wizard until an authorization block was reached, yet some rules were created. No operator records were created as part of this process. This was traced to code left in place after the creation of pxAppConfig and pzAppConfig portals, and has been resolved. The New Application wizard UI will display a message to a user when they lack access to build a new application, and an error will be displayed for any attempt to create a new application directly via pzCreateNewApplication to address a scenario where a user might be trying to call the activity without the front end.

Adjusted validation of literal value of a parameter
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
When mapping a parameterized when rule to the proposition filter, parameters passed from the proposition filter page were not getting flown to the when rule. This was caused by special character validation for a literal value of a parameter which necessitated putting the parameter value within quotes and which resulted in a parameter value mismatch at run time. To support this use, this validation has been disabled as parameter values would not get included within quotes. This change does not have any impact on when rule or proposition filter rules java generation.

OpenRule logic updated for GetRuleInfo
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
The exception "InsufficientPrivileges:RuleExecutionDenied RULE-OBJ-ACTIVITY @BASECLASS PZGETRULEINFO" was thrown for some access groups when attempting to view a section from the end-user perspective on the Opportunity screen. Investigation showed this happened when a section had a table in which "Optimize code" was unchecked. If "Optimize code" was checked, then the exception was not thrown. This was traced to recent security changes in pzGetRuleInfo which affected the BAC registration process, and has been resolved by updating the way the openRule action registration logic invokes the activity.
