Localization added for currency values using commas vs decimal points
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
Excel within PRPC was not properly localizing for the use of decimal and comma as thousand and decimal separators for decimal/double currency property values, a use that is common in non-English installations. The records editor has been changed to support localization for properties of type double and decimal.

Enhanced error handling for WebSphere class conflicts
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
An error caused by a class conflict issue in WebSphere was being generated when exporting Process Flow as XPDL. In order to clarify the limitations in this use, changes have been made to the XSLTRANSLATE Activity to add an extra catch that handles any style sheet errors explicitly and provides an informative error message.

Epilog activity correctly executing for asynchronous queues
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
When configuring a File Listener and Service-File for Asynchronous execution queue, the Epilog activity was not being executed. There was a workaround of switching to synchronous execution, but this issue was traced to a logic flaw that created a race condition between the processing of the file parsing (which occurs in one thread) and the row processing (which occurs in a separate thread) and has been resolved.

Corrections and enhancements made to Outlook meeting requests
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
Using the function 'SendEmailMessage' to send an Outlook meeting request was only generating an email instead of the full meeting invitation. This was traced to unimplemented code and has been corrected. In addition, enhancements have been added to the FormatMeetingRequest RUD to set RSVP options for TO & CC recipients, and the PRODID flag value has been parameterized.

Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
When attempting to upload a file using the EForm wizard, an error was generated stating "The Flow Action post-processing activity PopulateFileRule failed" and the file did not upload.

Addressed XML handling for "Expand Java Pages"
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
After upgrading, an IOException occurred while updating a work object if "Expand Java Pages" was unchecked in General options -> Tracer Settings. When the checkbox is enabled, the Javaobject wrapper uses its custom read/write methods to serialize the page. When unchecked, default serialization invoked the ParseXMLSAXRulWrapper.java which contained some properties which are not Serializable. In order to ensure proper XML handling, changes were made to XMLStream.java so the code flow is independent of the expand java pages option in tracer and always takes the custom serialization path.

Addressed ruleset integrations problems using Google Chrome
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
When using Google Chrome and running the Integration > Tools > Rule-From-File wizard, the ruleset version was not displayed and it was not possible to proceed past the screen that requires values for rule name, ruleset, ruleset version and class name. This was due to there not being an input field for RuleSet Version, and the validation of that step in the wizard fails. This issue occurred due to Google Chrome not supporting the use of document.all in the HTML code, leading to an undefined value for the JavaScript. This has been resolved by changes to the HTML to make it browser code independent.
