Resolved importing PublicFormat file using RuleFromFile Wizard
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
When attempting to create a flow from a Public Format XML file using the Rule From File Wizard, the following error was seen: "Problem invoking function: pega_procom_harvest.performXSLT--(String,String,boolean,HashStringMap)". This was caused by a mapping failure related to the pyComments property in baseclass pega social functionality, and has been resolved with the addition of a new page group property pyComments of type "Data-MO-Annotation-Comment" which applies to "Embed-Rule-Obj-Flow-ProcessModel". In addition, a system property set has been added:'System.setProperty("javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory","com.sun.org.apache.xalan.internal.xsltc.trax.TransformerFactoryImpl");' to make the security flags work properly in java step of 'transformPublicFlow' activity

Route to configuration in the approval flow accepts Specific User parameters
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
Route to configuration in the approval flow was not accepting a parameter value/property value when select Specific User option from drop down was chosen. This was traced to unique ID change work done in the 8.2 release: the pzSimpleApproval section has two controls (DropDown for Participant & AutoComplete for Operator) configured on same property pyOperatorToAssign with "run visibility on client configuration), and when the control value was being changed in the AutoComplete control, the empty value of DropDown control was being posted to the clipboard. To correct this, the section Work-.pzSimpleApproval has been modified to remove performing run-visibility conditions at client side. Instead, the system will use the ".pyApproverType Changes" condition to refresh the wrapper DL which contains the routeTo type Operator/WB/Participant property controls.

Added differentiated handling for special symbols based on location in the label string
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
While importing an Excel file into a decision table that used custom functions like@string:notequal or equal, label names like 'AlphaPrefix !=AAA' resulted in the error "invalid expression or reference: line 1:28 extraneous input '"True"' expecting {<EOF>, '-', '+', '=', '*', '/'," " . Investigation found that the problem was with the label of the column not handling the the special characters like (‘!=’, ‘<’ , ‘<=’, ‘>’, ‘>=’ ) present in the middle of the label string: the label and default operator were being updated irrespective of the location of the symbols within the string. To resolve this, DecisionTableWorkBookConverter.java has been modified to set the operator only if the special strings (‘!=’, ‘<’ , ‘<=’, ‘>’, ‘>=’ ) are present at the end of the label.

Pulse delete icon repaired
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
After upgrade, it was no longer possible to delete one's own comment in Pulse. This was traced to the section pzDeleteMessage having two dynamic layouts with icon as image configured. During runtime, this section was present in the DOM yet the icons were not visible when the conditions configured were returned as true. This was caused by an error in the generated java for the layout, and has been corrected.

Visibility on client check removed to enable Pulse on click
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
When Pulse was configured on click of a icon, the comment section was not visible. Investigation showed that at the time of DOM load, pyMessage property was not available in the DOM because 'Run visibility condition on client' was checked by default. Visibility on client checks have been removed to resolve this issue.

Code fragment removed to resolve CookieDisabledException
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
After upgrade, a CookieDisabledException occurred after a post activity was invoked in the single sign-on (SSO) authentication service. This was traced to the site using the deprecated flag "redirectguests" as part of SSO-based login for mashup usecases. This flag was used to check if a cookiedisabled exception was thrown or not, and if there was no cookie, if a requestor was authenticated in first request. However, the flag has been removed as part of work done to omit the Cookie support check on Mobile App UAs. Code that supported the use of this flag remained after that work and led to the exception being generated, but has now been removed as well.

Repository document deletion modified for better cleanup
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
When using documents functionality, creating and uploading a document properly stored it, but deleting the document did not remove the associated files from storage. Whenever a document is created that has a file, instances Of Link-Attachment and Data-WorkAttach-File are also created. Previously, when the document was deleted, the associated instances and actual file were not deleted from the repositories but rather marked as Resolved-Withdrawn and hidden at the UI level. The system has now been updated so that when a document is deleted, the document attachment will also be deleted from all places like list, Tile, and document View, and reference instances like Link-Attachment and Data-WorkAttach-File instance will also be removed along with the actual file from the repository.

Column formatting default added to Export to Excel to match Export to PDF
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
After running the pyGetWorkHistory report in Designer Studio, exporting the report to PDF showed the correct data format for the Message Key column while exporting to Excel did not. In the Report Definition UI and in Export to PDF (which use the same logic), when the backing property of a column has no control and the column does not have a format, the control falls back to a "Default" control. The "Default" control localized the string values in the Report Definition UI and Export to PDF, therefore changing the Message Key to be the correct value in those places. The similar logic to explicitly handle the "no control" scenario has now also been added to Export to Excel to resolve this issue.

Corrected viewing of sorted drill-down spreadsheet-style summary reports
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
When using a report with a summarized column and the 'Do not display group headings' grouping option checked, drill down was not working when the report was primarily sorted by default on any column other than the first one. This manifested as either no results returned by the drill down report or an error message related to invalid filter values. This was traced to the unique column ordering logic for non-spreadsheet-style summary reports being applied to the drilldown of spreadsheet-style summary reports due to the logic for creating the drilldown filters using the != operator to compare the spreadsheet flag string to the string constant "true". This previously worked as expected because this string was interned in the engine, but these string internments have since been removed. To correct this, pzPopulateReport has been updated to appropriately recognize spreadhseet-style summary reports as they used to.
