Character counter updates correctly with RDL refresh section

Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.9

When using a repeating dynamic layer with a refresh section, the text area character counter was not accurate. This was traced to the system sourcing server-side metadata for the remaining character count and refresh section updating the same remaining count to all textareas. This has been corrected by recalculating the count for each template rendering of textarea so that it works correctly inside templatized repeating structures.

Layout Group tab alignment correctly shown in Microsoft Internet Explorer

Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.9

Even though the responsive breakpoint for a layout group was disabled, the tabs were getting changed to Menus in Microsoft Internet Explorer. This was traced to Tab-overflow being triggered in very small viewports when using Internet Explorer 11, and has been resolved by adding DOM manipulations for all layout groups.

Case history filter added for manual instantiation of Child Case

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.5

After upgrade from v7.4 to v8.3, creating any child case from a parent case unexpectedly added the audit history "Child case xxxxx has been manually instantiated" to the parent case. In order to make this customizable, an "isHistoryAvailable" function has been added in the 'when' condition of "AddCoveredWork" Activity's "History-Add" Step. This will use the FilterHistory decision tree, which now has a setting for "ChildCaseInsAudit" to control whether or not the manual Instantiation of a Child Case will appear in the case history. The default is "true"; setting it to "false" will suppress the message.

Child case locking error message has correct parameter

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.5

A locking error message was appearing without the case parameter, showing "Error Message : Could not lock the cover ; has it. Please wait and try again later." This was traced to the cover already being present, causing the step to open the Cover Object to fail. To resolve this, and update has been added to pass the Cover case ID to the field value.

Null check added for embedded section pyInclude tag

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.5

When attempting to implement a call to the Pega API casetypes endpoint, the end point /casetypes/{id} returned data for only some of the casetype IDs. For others there was no content in the response and in the logs the error "null at com.pegarules.generated.pzAPICreateJsonForGroup" was seen. This was traced to the use of an old section which did not generate the embedded section pyInclude tag. When the API was called on the same section, it tried to perform an equality check on the variable which gets the pyInclude value, and the null value caused the Null pointer exception. This has been resolved by adding a null check to cover pyInclude in an embedded section.

Parent flow next step will take precedence over sub-process

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.5

A Breadcrumb configured in the screen flow was not displaying at the last assignment when there were multiple embedded sub processes and the last assignment was called in a sub process. This was traced to the parent flow next step information not being passed due to the next step in the sub process being marked as an end shape. To resolve this, the pzFlowSteps7 html control has been updated to pass the parent flow's next step information in this situation.

Rendering corrected for contextual prompt in Case Type

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.5

In Case Type with multiple stages, clicking to add step->More at the last stage caused the More menu to be distorted and not usable. Investigation showed that whenever the contextual prompt was opened in this way and the layout had no space on the right side, it shifted left and moved beyond the visible layout. This was traced to the two column layout in pxContextualPromptWithPreview having display styling set to block, and has been resolved by updating this setting to display as table.
