Best practices for converting list view rules and summary view rules
Beginning with Pega® 7.2, list view rules and summary view rules are deprecated and no longer supported. List view rules and summary view rules use framesets to provide a view of drill-down reports. However, HTML5 does not support framesets, so list view and summary view reports are not displayed correctly in newer browsers with stricter standards compliance, such as Microsoft Edge.
You can convert existing list view rules or summary view rules to a supported format by doing one of the following actions:
- If a list view rule or summary view rule uses the standard content activity, re-create it as a report definition. For more information about report definitions, see Report Definition rule form.
- If a list view rule or summary view rule uses a custom content activity, use a data page to retrieve the data. For more information about data pages, see Data pages.
- If a list view rule or summary view rule is embedded in part of the UI, use a grid or tree grid and a data page for that part of the UI. For more information about grids and tree grids, see Adding a grid layout and Adding a tree grid layout.
- If a list view rule or summary view rule uses custom SQL, use a function alias rule. For more information about function alias rules, see About function alias rules.
