DirtyCheck handling updated for Perform harness
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1
In some view scenarios, DirtyCheck was displayed but the "OK/Discard/Save" button unexpectedly closed the case view and returned back to the home page. Investigation showed the DirtyCheck harness was not returning to the appropriate page after the modal screen disappeared, and this has been resolved by changing the "Discard/Save" buttons to an "Ok" button for scenarios where a case is opened in a Perform harness.

Placeholder value display made customizable
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1
The default place holder value (123,456.78) was displayed for the integer controls even when the placeholder was set to None. This has been resolved by modifying the code to allow customization of the place holder value display. If the "Display value using read-only formatting" option present under editable format is selected and the desire is to show default placeholder for numeric fields, "showDefaultPlaceholderForNumber" with owning ruleset as "Pega-UIEngine" must be created and set to true. If "Display value using read-only formatting" is selected and the default placeholder should not be shown in numeric fields, the DSS should be set to false.

BIX Total Instance count matches manifest
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
The BIX Manifest file was showing a count mismatch when the BIX Manifest and Extract files were shared with downstream teams, causing data to not be accepted by the downstream application. Investigation showed this occurred for an embedded page list property in the sequence that was missed and not considered. To resolve this, a DSS has been added: when BIX/generateAllEmptySubscriptForPageList is set to true, an empty subscript will be generated for the missed properties.

Quorum capability check added for external Elastic Search
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
The error "java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: Not supported for client/server mode at search.indexmanager.internal.ESIndexAdminHTTP.isQuorumAvailable" was appearing when attempting to use external Elastic Search to index a dedicated index, and the queue processor was running but showed multiple broken items. This has been resolved by adding a capability check with ES_INITIALIZE_EMBEDDED_CLUSTER to prevent a quorum check with external elastic search.

Added reporting on descendant classes for framework
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
Reporting on descendant classes was not working as expected. In a report definition with "Reporting on descendant classes enabled," the framework class and implementation class each refers to two different tables that use the same names but belong to two different schemas. Investigation showed the generated SQL query was not adding the necessary UNION clause, and the records from the descendant classes were missing when running the report on framework class. This was a missed use case and has been corrected.

Handling updated for INativeSQLBuilder with ABAC enabled
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
When trying to import into a data type, the error "Exception occurred during data import pxW-886: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: INativeSQLBuilder not initialized properly" was generated. Investigation showed that when Add or Update was chosen with ABAC enabled during import, a null pointer exception occurred while getting the class definition. This has been handled by adding an extra null condition check.

Privileges adjusted for RetrieveReportData
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
In recent versions of Pega, pxRetrieveReportData was secured with @baseclass AllFlows and OpenDeveloperForm privileges. However, this can interfere with setting up roles after update. To resolve this, the privilege restrictions have been removed from pxRetrieveReportData as it is already protected by ABAC/RBAC.

Drilldown report takes original report prompt parameters
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
When a report had prompt filters configured and the summary report definition was executed by giving prompt filters, drilling down to one of the records in the summary report display and then looking at the reports displayed and summarized on a column showed a mismatched count. This was found to be a very specific edge case that involved calling the "Summarize" action from a report column within a drilldown report when using a custom filter section and "prompt for filter changes" on the main report. Filters from the custom filter section were being propagated to the drilldown report when summarizing, but the drilled-down-and-summarized report itself had not been refreshed on the client side to reflect this. To resolve this, the actions have been copied from pyDefaultCustomFilterApplyCancel and applied to the Summarize selection in pzGridMenuNavRule.

Updated dedicated index reindexing check
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
Attempts to reindex were not successful after a dedicated index failed with the error "Not enough active shards for index work to meet write consistency of quorum". This has been resolved by updating the system to validate the cluster state for the dedicated index name instead of the work index name when performing a dedicated index Reindex.
