DIrty check flag triggered by adding columns and filters
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.2
If a report was edited and closed without saving, the dirty check worked as expected. However, if new columns or filters were added and the report closed without saving, the dirty check did not appear. This has been resolved by updating the check logic.

Logic added for client-side Somaria decoding
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.2
When Somaria (an Advanced Data Visualization control) was used with Predictor Performance, the special characters were displayed as ASCII values instead of the actual values in the label. This was traced to Somaria encoding special characters of the visualization data into HTML entities on the server in order to protect against cross-site scripting attacks, but these entities were not being decoded on the client side. To resolve this, logic has been added to decode HTML entities in Somaria data on the client.

DSS added to allow disabling Excel cell export security
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.2
In order to avoid calculation injection during Export to Excel, an apostrophe character was added to the cell on export to close a vulnerability. However, sites using an external tool to consume the Excel document needed a workaround for this security feature. The resolution for this issue adds a DSS setting "TurnOffSecurityForExportToExcel" which can now be used to turn on/off the security feature that adds char " ' " in front of the cell value. Further refinements to this work will be included in a future release.

ReportBrowser script updated to ensure older version refreshes on creation
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.2
When using the old version of the Report Browser, the count at the report category did not update after being saved into a category until logout and login back to the portal. This was a missed use case for the old browser during updates to the UIKit and has been resolved by including the reportbrowser script in the header section pyCMReportBrowserHeader to ensure a refresh.

Special character handling added to filters for table sourced with parameterized RD
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7
Filters were not working on a table when sourced with a report definition which accepted a parameter value containing special characters (Eg: S&P). This has been resolved by using StringUtils.reversibleCrossScriptingFilter in the pzGetGridColUniqueValues activity to allow filters to contain special characters.

Notification option for change of search nodes removed from Cloud
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7
The search landing page for Pega Cloud was displaying a checkbox to enable sending automatic emails if the search node was modified. As the description of the notification 'Notify on change of search host nodes' suggests, this option is to send notifications only when a search host node has been modified(addition/removal) from the search landing page. This is not applicable for the automatic addition/removal of search nodes that happens on starting the node. As the addition/removal of nodes is not allowed from the search landing page on Cloud environments, this option is not applicable for Cloud and the checkbox has now been removed for that environment.

Data Social tag class FTS index query improvements
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7
A query intended to select from the link tag table to see if any cases were linked to the tag in question and then index the tag change was causing performance issues. Investigation showed that checking tag associations during FTS indexing fetched all matching rows from the table even though one was sufficient. To resolve this, the query will be created with max result count = 1, fetching up to 2 rows from the table.

Eligibility prompt integer values sorted by incremental size
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7
In an Offer rule on the Eligibility tab of the Eligibility Builder, an eligibility row using {integer property} comparator {value} had the list of prompt values sorted alphabetically for integer values rather than incremental size when using Select value -> Existing Values. This has been corrected by revising the logic in addValuesToOutputPage to call Report.sort with different sorting algorithm for numeric values. Logic was also updated to call Report.sort for prompt lists.

Search behavior change after update corrected
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7
After update, changes were seen in the search behavior that included the toggle button at the top left corner of the landing page becoming disabled when re-indexing was in process, the Re-index buttons becoming disabled and a cancel button appearing in place of the re-index button for the specific index category being indexed, indexing done through batch indexers not presenting progress in the document size column every 10 seconds but instead presented the whole row for the index category as blank, and progress being indicated by the changing figures under the Queue Information section on the Search Landing Page. This was due to a conflict in which ruleset was highest after rulesets were imported during update, and has been resolved by updating pzLPSearchManagerReIndexSection to use the correct version of the ruleset.
