Corrected runtime name length check for custom fields to resolve logged error
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.5
The error "Notification_MobilePush.Action ERROR - Can't parse JSON string to map" was being frequently logged. Investigation showed that in the Step8 activity in pySendNofication from Pega-Notification-MobilePush class, setting @String.length(customFields)>0 where customFields was a local value caused the runtime length check on customFields to fail. To resolve this, the Step8 activity in pySendNofication from Pega-Notification-MobilePush class has been modified from using @String.length(customFields)>0 to use @String.length(Local.customFields)>0.

Able to add message to Pulse when it includes "@."
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.5
Messages that contained the "@." character, like "@.com", "@.es" or "personas@..." were not being added in Pega Pulse. This has been resolved by setting the workid prefix in pyDefault of PegaSocial-Group and adding a check to see if the mentioned item starts with a workid prefix before doing an obj-browse.

Unchecked Include descendant classes in pyFeedUserDetails report definition
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.5
After upgrade from Pega 7.4. to Pega 8.4, the use of a custom class 'XX-Data-OperatorLoginDetails' which pattern-inherits from Data-Admin-Operator-ID was causing the error "Union not applied because properties [pyImageFileName, pyEmailAddress, pyUseLocale, pyDefaultTimeZone] are not optimized in Data-OperatorLoginDetails”. This happened when the case manager portal was launched and the report definition pyFeedUserDetails (introduced in newer releases) was running by default, and was due to the presence of a few unoptimized properties when the report definition had "Report on Descendant classes" - include all descendant classes, checked by default. To resolve this, the checkbox to Include descendant classes in pyFeedUserDetails is now set as unchecked by default.

Null check added for pzinskey in CSLoadSelectedArticle
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.5
In step 5 of CSLoadSelectedArticle, there is a call to pzGetAssociatedTags. Step 1 of pzGetAssociatedTags is an Obj-Browse with MaxRecords set to 100000000, and there is logic to retrieve records where pxLinkedRefFrom = Primary.pzInsKey. If Primary.pzInsKey is null, then the Obj-Browse will fetch all of the records. In order to prevent an unnecessary flood of results, a when condition has been added in the CSLoadSelectedArticle rule to check pzInskey so that when the context is empty the system will not call the pzGetAssociatedTags and return the entire record set.

Will generate reset schedule response." to be more informative.

CalendarGadget updated to display events in Saudi locale
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.5
When using the pxCalendar section with the locale setting ar_SA, the calendar was correctly converted to a Saudi calendar but the events which were showing in the English version of the calendar were not showing up in in the Saudi Calendar. This was caused by the CalendarGadget page not populating properly due to the localized Hijri calendar failing a datetime check that was looking for a Gregorian calendar with time in GMT format, and has been resolved by updating the when rule "pzShouldDisplayEvent " to use the proper function for the localized calendar.

Corrected mobile password control behavior on failed validation
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
Given a section on mobile where the out-of-the-box password control was used on a textbox with input field of type Password to set a new password, failed validation on the field caused the cursor on the input field to jump to the left. It was then not possible to delete the text or correct the placement of the cursor. This was traced to a missing type check for password in isTextBox(), and has been corrected.

Pulse @mention will avoid triggering search request if no suggestion list is available
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
Search threads were causing requestor Lock Exceptions due to poorly optimized queries sent to ElasticSearch when a Pulse mention was attempting to look up a person (e.g. "@"+typing) and the search of case objects to match to that search were performing poorly. To resolve this, an update has been made to avoid triggering requests if the suggestions list is not available for the search query.

Local user lookup modifed to use requestor level data page to improve performance
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
In a system with many users (over 40k), attempting to search for a user to send a private message was taking an excessive amount of time. Analysis found that all of the users were being loaded at once in a page list of type Code-Pega-List. This led to errors indicating the Page List property had more elements than the specified threshold, but pagination could not be added as the activity and Report Definition are final. To improve performance, this process has been modified to use a data page at the requestor level instead.
