Report title displayed for empty widget charts
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
Per design if there is no data to be rendered in the chart from a report added in a Widget in any portal, a static image is displayed saying "No Data to Display". However, if there were multiple reports in the Widget it caused confusion on which report was not being displayed because the image did not show the title of the report. To resolve this, an enhancement has been added to modify pzRRChartDiv to display the report Title even when there is no data in it.

Search landing page performance improved
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
Performance improvements have been made for the Pega Platform search landing page by implementing timeouts for all requests to ElasticSearch when executing PegaIndexAdminImpl.getIndicesInfo() and changing all requests for single index to requests for all indexes. In addition, SearchUtils.areDummyDocumentsPresent() has been modified to get all 'dummy documents' in case there are duplicate dummy documents in the ElasticSearch indexes.

Deployment Manager rollback works for directed inheritance
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
Rollback was not working correctly in Deployment Manager for history classes using directed inheritance. This was traced to a redundant check in AbstractHistoryPageKeeper that enforced the history pages pattern inherited from one of the base history classes, and this has now been removed.

Improved handling to ensure circumstanced rules skim is complete
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
After performing a major rule skim, it was noticed that some of the circumstanced rules were not carried over to the higher version. The data was restored and a second skim was attempted. Once again, not all of the circumstanced rules were carried over; however, the results were different than in skim 1. This issue was traced to the circumstanced rule and base rule having the same pxCreateDateTime because they were processed with in a millisecond span. To resolve this, a 1ms explicit sleep has been added before processing each record.

Changelog cleanup added for de-optimized properties
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
Unwanted optimization was automatically added to properties for the Application-Work-Casetype class created using the wizard in the App Studio. Attempts to remove the optimization did not work: the property advance tab was showing the optimized classes details even after deleting and recreating the property. When a property is optimized the system adds entries to pr_changelog for the list of classes it has optimized. When the property was deleted, the pr_changelog was not cleared. This was a missed usecase, and has been resolved by overriding the Cleanup activity at Rule-Obj-Property class to delete the pr_changelog entry associated with that if it is present.
