DSS added to control merge strategy
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
The activity page merge option takes merge strategy as input and supports different merge strategy options like 'Replace', 'Update' etc. Previously, V1 DX APIs defaulted to REPLACE as the merge strategy; this has been updated to support both 'REPLACE' and 'UPDATE' merge strategies which can be controlled with the new DSS "v1MergeStrategy". The DSS to customize the merge strategy for v2 APIs is 'v2MergeStrategy', which also takes the values 'REPLACE' and 'UPDATE', which are for merge strategy '1' and '3' respectively. The default strategy from Pega 8.6 forward is 'UPDATE' and any other value other than the above two values will be considered as 'UPDATE'.

Wait action persists when using Urgency Adjustment
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
When using the Urgency Adjustment (pyAdjustAssignmentsla standard local action), once a case reached the wait action and the goal and deadline were updated the previous pyWaitAction was not being stored. This has been resolved by ensuring the previous pyWaitAction will be stored and passed to the AddAssign activity.

Attachment errors correctly triggered for subsequent copies of the same file
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
After attaching a file larger than 4MB and triggering a dirty popup error, uploading the same file again did not trigger the error. This was traced to the onChange event of the File Input Tag not being triggered when the same file is attached again, and has been resolved by adding handling for attaching the same file in error scenarios (File Max Size,File Size Zero).

Bulk Actions filter working for embedded date properties

Application selections only announced when visible
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
The elements of the application switcher were being announced by the NVDA screen reader even when toggled off, i.e. not visible. The issue was occurring because the focus was remaining at the search bar even after closing the app switcher window, and has been resolved by adding the necessary logic to switch the focus.

Updated bulk action audit history logic and security
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
After update, using the standard bulk action feature did not record an audit history entry for the SLA action on a case. This was traced to changes made around authorization for opening worklists when using pzBulkProcessItem that limited the audit history to reassign, transfer or transfer assignment, and has been resolved by updating the login the Work-pzBulkProcessItem activity. In addition, the Require authentication to run checkbox has been enabled on the Security tab of the activity, and the Allow invocation from browser checkbox has been disabled.

SaveAttachment Activity in Data-WorkAttach-URL updated
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5
A 'when' condition was not properly evaluated for Activity SaveAttachment (CL:Data-WorkAttach-URL ), causing the Next assignment screen to not be displayed. This has been resolved by modifying the handling of Page Names used as activity parameters to remove the use of the specific PageName "pyAttachmentPage" in the operation and make it generic to Primary in the SaveAttachment Activity of CL: Data-WorkAttach-URL.

FilterHistory decision tree used for audit log status
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5
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 8.5
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.
