Upgrade compatibility enhanced for Pega-ConditionBuilder ruleset
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
In Pega v8.2.5, the Pega-ConditionBuilder ruleset was added as part of the PegaMarketing application. When these enhancements were promoted to a platform ruleset beginning with Pega v8.4, the function names were modified with PZ/PX prefixes due to the corresponding validation standards in place for rules created in platform rulesets. Unfortunately, this introduced an upgrade impact. Due to the function name change, strategies failed when attempting to evaluate the functions configured in the filter component. Eg: @string.ContainsIgnoreCase function is part of the Pega-ConditionBuilder ruleset, which was not available. To resolve this, the following function aliases have been created in this release:ContainsIgnoreCase StartsWithIgnoreCase EndsWithIgnoreCase CompareDateTimeToSymbolicDate

Updated Time Zone dropdown control
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
The RF_Timezonelist control was deprecated in Pega v8.4 and withdrawn in Pega v8.5 and a replacement datapage was provided to give the same list of time zones. Unfortunately, some references were not corrected to point to the replacement, causing an issue with custom functions that were attempting to set the time zone on an OperatorID calendar instance in order to calculate goal and deadline properties before setting the SLA. The work has been reviewed and updated to ensure all referencing rules are now correctly replacing the RF_Timezonelist with a dropdown sourcing the data page.

Rulesets removed from direct invocation ability
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7
The following rules have been updated such that they are no longer available to be invoked directly by a client or service: Clipboard_ExecuteActivity, getClassInstances, getOperatorIDs, and GetXMLRuleData. In addition, pzAutoGenClipboard_ExecuteActivity will now require authentication.

Access Deny working as expected for Offers
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7
It was possible to Save-As an offer in PegaMKT-Work-Offer after encountering an access deny rule. The record was not created in Dev Studio, however, and an expected denial of access was not registered at runtime. This was due to Access deny rules not being considered as a part of validation, and has been resolved by adding the necessary permission validation to the new harness that will produce the error message informing the user that they are missing a permission. Additional work has also been done to pass the 'pzKeepPageMessages' parameter as true so that page level error messages are correctly displayed.

Testcases are not available for 'access when' rules
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7
Attempting to create test cases for access when rules resulted in guardrail warnings about the need to create a test case. Because Test Cases are not available for the Access When rule type as per Pega expected behavior, the guardrail warnings are not valid and have been removed.

Related cases of different types properly linked in Case Worker Portal
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7
After creating a case of type1 in the Case Worker portal, creating a case of type2 from the first case showed the case ID of the second case in the Related Work section as expected. However, after clicking on the link of the case ID of the second case from the related work section, the second case opened but the case ID of the first case was not shown in the Related work. The cases were correctly associated when the Case Manager portal was used instead. This was traced to the Case Worker clipboard continuing to hold the previous case ID thread, and has been resolved.
