Configurability added to SLA Timeliness to allow either 0 or NULL for Unqualified records
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
When using a Report Definition where the count (aggregate function) was used for both the WithinSLA and Past Deadline columns, the correct value was not getting displayed. The correct value was displayed when the sum function was used instead of the count function, but clicking 'value' returned all values despite what value was displayed on the screen. This was a behavior change related to performing a drill down action on a report definition. As per the older behavior, drill down relies on a specific value (NULL) to determine whether a record is a candidate to be shown in the drill down report. From 7.2.1 forward, drilldown relies on value 0 instead of NULL to make the average summarize function work properly, which led to a change in behavior when used with other summarize functions like sum and count. To resolve this, SLA Timeliness related RAFs have been modified to conditionally return either 0 or NULL for Unqualified records based on a DASS config.

Force order added to inner join when running a Rules Resolution filter
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
After upgrade, D_getResolvedWorkStatuses was not loading properly due to a Report Definition that used a Filter by Rule Resolution option timing out on the SQL Server. When the Filter by Rule Resolution option is selected in RD, it will generate a rule resolution query with an inner join which can cause a time out on the SQL Server while it tries to find out the join order for tables with multiple joins. To resolve this, the SQL server will provide a Force order, merge inner join hint option by way of an added DSS reporting/useForceOrderHint. Additionally, reporting/useMergeHintForRRquery should be set on Pega-Reporting to set things up for using the Merge Inner join hint in the query.

Corrected Export to Excel after adding custom DateTime field
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
An issue with exporting report definition results to Excel after adding a custom date field column through the edit report option of the report in report viewer was traced to the processing of the controls backing a cell in a report when exporting to Excel. For controls like "Date Only" DateTime (non-autogenerated) control, the code was not returning a string the way it should. To resolve this, NonAutoReportUIField has been updated to always treat all Non-auto Controls as strings.

Installer files updated with class loader conflict resolution assistance
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
When sending emails with attachments, errors were observed relating to a loader constraint violation indicating that when resolving interface method, the class loader of the current class and the class loader for the method's defining class had different Class objects for the type used in the signature. The resolution for this requires user configuration of the app server, and the following files for the install guide have been updated with the appropriate information:Deployment-guides-dita/install.ditamap Deployment-guides-dita/Content/Topics/app-server-config/creating-jdbc-driver-module-jboss-tsk.dita Deployment-guides-dita/Content/Topics/app-server-config/delegating-javax-activation-to-JRE-loader-tsk.dita

Added timeout handling for non-PRAuth servlets
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
After logging in via external authentication service (SAML Single Sign On) and setting up a timeout in the access group RuleForm, when the user performed any action and the server identified the request to be timed-out, it was expected that a SAML request would be sent from the browser to the external Authentication Server (referred as IDP) and the flow would proceed from there. This worked as expected for a non-AJAX request. To resolve this, handling has been added for timeout when using non-PRAuth authentication services.

SAML data pages restored after passivation
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
If login used SAML SSO, resuming the session after passivation resulted in missing or empty data pages when using an SAP integration with Pega Cloud. This was traced to a security change that modified the D_SAMLAssertionDataPage and D_SamlSsoLoginInfo data pages as readonly, causing them to not be passivated under these conditions. To resolve this, the data pages have been made editable so they will be restored as expected. This change also resolves any difficulty with SAML logoff activities in conjunction with SAP and Pega Cloud.

prproductmigration build.gradle updated for new mime4j asset name
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
While running the getMigrationLog for ProductMigration script provided in the Pega 8.2.2 media files, errors appeared referencing "NoClassDefFoundErrors when running getLogs". This was caused by the referenced class not being found on the classpath: the version of the included jar did not include the class needed due to Praxiom's default version being updated to use a new version of mime4j that required an asset name change. To resolve this, the mime4j asset name in prproductmigration build.gradle has been updated to pick up the correct version of the dependency for Praxiom.
