SR-D18725 · Issue 488208

OrgUnit delete works as expected

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

After creating two organization units such as Unit1 and Unit11 on the same level and mapping one operator to Unit11, attempting to delete Unit1 resulted in an error indicating the operator had to be deleted first even though unit1 had no operator associated with it. This was traced to Obj-List performing a 'like' check instead of exact match check for the deletion, and has been resolved by updating the ValidateDelete activity to do obj-browse instead of obj-list.

Logic updated for displaying email attachments

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

Once an Email had been sent with attachments, additional attachments could be added to the work object at a later time and would show up when the work object was opened as if they had been part of the original transmission of the message. This was traced to the logic not accounting for for the state of the data-corr-email object and showing all the work object attachments as sent as part of the email irrespective of when the attachment was added. To resolve this, the system has been updated to save all the attachment keys that are sent as part of the email on the data-corr-email instance and use that property while retrieving the list of attachments sent on the email. If the attachment is deleted, no hyperlink will be shown but instead a message on hover on the attachment memo will note that the attachment was deleted and not available for download.

Enhancement added to expose BrowserAttachmentTypeTable

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

By default, the inline view of PDF files appears with the thread name visible. An enhancement has been made to expose pzBrowserAttachmentTypeTable as a py rule: when the DT is overridden such that return is false for PDF, the inline view is not displayed but instead the PDF is downloaded when clicked.

pxGenerateExcelFile updated for handling blank dates

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

When using a custom template for exporting to Excel, blank DateTime property column values defaulted to the current date or to 1/1/1970. To resolve this, the pxGenerateExcelFile activity has been updated to ensure that an empty date will be exported as blank and that given dates will appear in the correct datetime format.

Custom attachment category parameter passed to dropdown

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

Attempting to use the out-of-the-box “Attachments control” which was configured at design time to use a custom category where both the custom category and the section class were in the same work class resulted in the attachment category dropdown defaulting to “File” instead of the custom category. Investigation showed that the custom attachment category name configured on the control was missing in one of the pre-processing activities sequence. To resolve this, the activity Work-.pzInitAttachContent and the initAttachmentPage activity have been updated to pass the custom attachment category parameter.

Proper assignment instructions sent when transferring

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

Assignment instructions were not getting added properly when transferring to Workbaskets. Because both .pyInstruction and Param.InstructionNote are set in call Reassign (to workbasket), the same instruction value was being given twice. To resolve this, step 8 (Call Reassign) of Work-.pyReassignAssignment has been modified and will not send the InstructionNote param as instruction is already updated on the newassign page with the instruction value on reassign page in the previous step (step 7).

Added explicit step page to resolve null-pointer exception with custom error message

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

A null pointer exception was generated during case run time harness refresh after a custom error message was inserted. This was traced to a blank step page related to the custom message, and has been resolved by adding a primary step page at step 10 of the New(Work-) activity to prevent the null-pointer exception on harness reload.

Formula properly evaluated in pxParseExcelFile activity

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

When trying to use the activity pxParseExcelFile on an Excel file containing three sheets where each sheet had a different pagelist, the properties mentioned in sheet 1 were populated on upload but the remaining sheets only showed the error message "Could not get clipboard property for reference Work Queues.". This was caused by an error in Row index handling for the additional sheets, and has been resolved by updating the logic to populate the data in the clipboard.

Added handling for bulleted text insert triggering audit

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

When a bulleted text (copied from an email or rich text ) was used in the text area property, the audit considered it as a change even when there was no change. This was tracked to the field value 'pyHistoryMemo • ChangeTrack_Add' in @baseclass which is being used to get the localized value for audit memo: the field value accepts only 2 parameters, but the inserted text area input contained the '\t' that is used for parameter translation. To resolve this, the system will call the addMemoForSecurityChangeTracking utility method to replace all \t's present in both the Current Value and Previous value with 'empty' such that no '\t' characters are available in either of the string parameters.

Local change given for Attachment List View alignment issue

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

In the Attachment List View section, the text for the filter dropdown is misaligned and an extra close icon appears. As Attachment List View has been deprecated, this will not be addressed in a platform fix. For a workaround local change, add the below code in the AttachmentListView section: <style> .yui-panel .container-close::before, .container-close::before{ visibility:hidden; } #allCol{ width:155px; } </style>

We'd prefer it if you saw us at our best.
