Root Cause

A defect in Pegasystems’ code or rules.

Resolution

It will be fixed in future version.

If only the developer wants to compare the rules the following local change can be applied:

Private check-out the Out-of-the-box (OOTB)  Html fragment pzRuleDiffHistoryScripts  and replace the CompareRules() function with the below code :
 

function CompareRules()

{

    var theUrl = new SafeURL("PegaAccel-Management-Refactor-RuleSet.pyLaunchDiff")

 

    var checkboxes = pega.util.Dom.getElementsByName("historykey",document);

  var selected = 0;

  var addparam = 1;

                                      debugger;

    for (var i = 0;i < checkboxes.length ; i++)

    {

        if (checkboxes[i].checked)

       {

      var keyVal;

      if(i == 0) {

        keyVal = checkboxes[i].value;

        // The key index is from ' ' upto '!'

        var keyValRule = keyVal.substring(keyVal.indexOf(' '),keyVal.lastIndexOf('!'));

        keyVal = keyValRule;

      }else {

        keyVal = checkboxes[i-1].value

      }

     

      if (addparam == 1)

      {

        theUrl.put("FirstRuleKey",keyVal);

      }

      else if (addparam == 2)

      {

       

        theUrl.put("SecondRuleKey",keyVal);

       }

       addparam++;

        }

    }

    openUrlInWindow(theUrl,'rulediff',"toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes,width=1000,height=650 top=100 left=100 resizable=1");
