Enhanced discrimination for tasks in MyPega spaces
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
When using My Pega for spaces and tasks, using drag and drop to move many cases around quickly resulted in tasks intermittently ending up in a state where they could not be updated further and became unusable. Analysis showed that because the milliseconds part of the update time was rounded, the logic of comparing for value between 0 and 1000 failed when the comparison returned -ve value. To resolve this, the comparison has been modified to !=0 and the 'when' rule pyContinueTaskProcessing has been added as an extension along with the appropriate usage guide to restrict processing. By default, the system will consider task name, description, due date, assignee, and rank properties; if more properties are needed to evaluate, this when rule can help.

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.

Check added for lock expiration when using Save for Default locking
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
With the default case locking policy, during the process from creating a Case Object to Submit it was possible for multiple users to edit and save the same work object if the lock expired for the original user. No warnings appeared. To resolve this, handling has been added for a lock expiration scenario: previously, Save for Default locking was not considered. This has now been updated with a check that will evaluate whether or not the lock is gone before attempting to save.

Stale WorkSearchPreference data cleared when switching apps
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
The D_pyWorkSearchPreferences data page data was not refreshing while switching between apps, causing stale data to be populated under the case search dropdown for all the applications after switching the application from one to another. This has been resolved by removing the D_pyWorkSearchPreferences data page as part of pzProcessApplicationSwitch.

FetchApplicationLogo modified to Filter by rule resolution
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
It was observed that the Report Definition rule "pzFetchApplicationLogo", referenced by Activity rule "pzLoadApplicationLogo", always returned the older version of the Binary File "webwb • pyapp-logo • svg" because it had been set to retrieve a maximum of one record and in this case the results were sorted in an order where the oldest record was at the top. As the Report Definition did not indicate any sorting, most DBMS were returning the results in no particular or predictable order. To resolve this, "Filter by rule resolution" has now been enabled for RD pzFetchApplicationLogo.

Updated retry logic for S3 AddAttachmentFromEmail
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
When using the AddAttachmentFromEmail activity with S3 repositories, performing an obj-save on the data-workattach-file page executes a deferred save while also saving the file into the repository. if the data was inserted into S3 successfully but encountered an issue when saving the related data-work-attach-file page, the system was trying to call the save operation again. This tried to insert the duplicate attachment again to S3, causing an error on that side of the process. To resolve this, the duplicate Obj-Save functionality in AddAttachmentFromMail Activity has been removed.

Updated DisplayAttachment to handle SIngleClick download from Case Worker portal
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
On using the script "pega.ui.HarnessActions.doAttachmentSingleClick" in the Worker portal to download attachments displayed within a screen flow, the entire application was hanging and no action was invoked even on clicking the Continue or Finish buttons of the screen flow. Whenever an attachment is downloaded using the script function pega.ui.HarnessActions.doAttachmentSingleClick() , an iframe is used and changetracker is called to communicate data between different iframes. However, the case worker portal is a single thread model while the manager and admin portals are multi threaded, which resulted in changetracker freezing on the worker portal. To resolve this, the DisplayAttachment HTML rule has been updated to build the necessary changeTrackerMap for the worker portal.

FilterHistory decision tree used for audit log status
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
Attempting to use the “FilterHistory” decision tree in the work class to return value “false” for “pyCloseOpenAssignmentsOnResolution” to hide the “pyCloseOpenAssignmentsOnResolution” field value (“Unfinished assignments were cleaned up by the system after the completion.. ”) from history was not working as expected, and still returned the audit message. This was due to the system setting this AuditNote parameter within the “pzProcessResolutionStage” activity, where Param.UpdateHistory was set to true always. In order to support more flexibility, the Param.updateHistory paramter in step3 of the pzProcessResolutionStage activity will be set based on the FilterHistory decision tree. When set to false in FilterHistory decision tree, pyCloseOpenAssignmentsOnResolution will be set as false and audit will not be logged.

Resolved erroneous problem assignment error
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
If a user processed a work item while the SLA agent was also attempting to process it, it sometimes resulted in an assignment with the error: "Error: Flow Not At Task." In this scenario, an error message was displayed stating that "Assignment already completed" even though the assignment was not yet finished, causing confusion. Investigation showed that in cases where the success indicator was -28, the assignment was marked as problem assignment even though it was processed. To resolve this, the system has been updated to skip marking the assignment as a problem when the success indicator is -28.
