Updated logging for "Obfuscated URL tampering" errors
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2.1
The error "pegarules.util.URLObfuscation) ERROR - Obfuscated URL tampering - unable to derive cleartext data" was being logged when the "cookie/HttpOnly" parameter was set. This was traced to the unobfuscating of data failing at the server end, and the loggers have been updated to print requestor data for better diagnostics.

Fixed improper ID carryover after reset all loggers
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2.1
When a user reset the logs, the same user ID was then being populated in the log entries of master agent and requestor lock exceptions from that point on even when the exceptions were from other users. This was due to the username not being cleared correctly after the reset all loggers operation is done, and to fix this, the reset all loggers functionality has been changed such that no data from main thread is copied onto the child thread(the dispatcher thread).

Fixed Multiselect grid drag and drop
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2.1
When using MultiSelectList Control, if a value was selected and then 'submit' was used to populate the Grid's data, dragging and dropping the Grid's row to some other workbasket did not work. This happened because the clipboard calls the remove property with a symbolic delete when doing a drag and drop. While processing this delete, if the mode of property was unknown the system was unable to look up the property definition in the dictionary, and an exception occurred. To fix this, handling has been added to lookup the definition of the property if it is unknown before removing it.

PerformCriteria contains CurUserHasRequiredSkills 'when' rule

Corrected approval step task message
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.9
When a case progressed to the approval step, the task name did not properly appear as part of the "Please approve or reject this" message. In another scenario, a portal which supported locale switching was not translating "Please approve or reject this" when the locale was switched, but instead displayed the message in the original language. Investigation traced this to the pzInstructionsForApproval data transform storing the localized field value, causing it to persist inappropriately. This has been resolved.

Exported Excel from Decision Table wraps correctly
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
After upgrade, entries were displayed in a single line on exporting a decision table to Excel despite WrapText cell formatting being set. This was traced to the WrapText cell formatting set under the UpdateGridCells() function being overridden inside an addDataFormat() function callas part of DecisionTableWorkBookConverter.java. This has been resolved by adding the new function "setWorkAreaCellStyles" and calling it after generateWorkbook() function call of super class (AbstractWorkBookConverter.java).

Added handling for validation after inactivity
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
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.
