Rearranging columns in multi-tab sections corrected
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
When using a multi-tab section, re-arranging the columns was only effective in the first tab. This was caused by the tabs lacking individual global variables to give them unique IDs, and has been fixed.

WebSphere WorkManager pool setting correction
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
Due to a coding defect, the WorkManager thread pool setting configured through WebSphere was not being utilized. As a consequence, a large number of daemon threads could be created during certain scenarios and the ability to make connections could be reduced. This has been fixed, and the system will now use the WebSphere WorkManager setting.

Enhanced task queue handling for custom applications
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
In some situations, a custom agent would periodically fall over when processing a large backlog of queued items. This was caused by an exception thrown when placing a task in the queue when it is already present. The system has been updated to better handle this situation and allow agents to continue to execute with the present schedule when a duplicate task is found.

CreateUniqueID enhanced to allow custom instances
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
The out-of-the-box PopulateReport activity previously used shorthand notation when referencing the CreateUniqueID function instead of referencing the function using the RuleSet or library name. This caused an issue with systems that contained a custom version of CreateUniqueID in the CMSUtilities library, resulting in "Multiple suitable instances found" errors. In order to accommodate custom instances of CreateUniqueID, long hand notation will be used for matching in place of shorthand.

Improved crash recovery in a complex system
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
During crash recovery in a clustered, load balanced system, attempting to recover a user's progress displayed a message that the session was recovered but the page did not then properly load the recovered data. To ensure proper crash recovery failover on complex systems, the user is now authenticated on the STANDARD thread instead of a work thread when restoring work in progress.

Report drill downs for embedded summary charts open in a new window
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
If a Summary View chart has a drill down to another summary view and then to a list view, when the section is launched, clicking on the pie of a summary chart in the portal gets drilled down to the next level. However, when the chart was maximized (opened in a pop up), it was not drilling down. This was traced to the way actions were configured: when reports were maximized, the main window was set to the parent window and drilling down refreshed the main window and not the maximized window. To remedy this, report drill downs now open in a new window instead of modifying the parent window.

Added display expansion capabilities for accessibility mode
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
Previously, expanding displays with "+" in the listview category headers required a mouse click. An enhancement has been added to additionally allow use of the enter key at this location to expand and display the attachments of that category type (Notes, Files, Emails, etc.).
