"Use null if empty" checkbox honored for GetSelectValues
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
When Report Definition rule uses parameters as a value for filter criteria, a moderate performance warning was generated: ''Some of your filters are using a parameter with the "Use null if empty" option NOT selected. Please ensure that you do pass the parameter. Otherwise, the filter will be dropped entirely and execution of the report will result in very poor performance. If you do not want this behavior, select the "Use null if empty" option.'' When the "Use null if empty" checkbox was selected as suggested, the "Select values" button gave an empty list of possible values. This was traced to refactoring work done on Select Values which changed it to be backed by a Report Definition and Grid instead of a List View: the option was intended to be only temporarily disabled, but was missed. To correct this, the activity pzGetSelectValues has been updated to honor the checkbox and appropriately disable the "Use null if empty" option on the selected filter on the temporary copy of the report definition before it is executed.

Large report pagination should use "Previous and Next only"
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
Some Report Definitions were getting timed out or facing gateway exceptions, primarily due to high time consumed by the DB Queries. Investigation showed the total result count process appeared to stop at the configured pyMaxRecords value as long as it was nonzero. This indicated the issue was related to changes made to fix the inaccurate behavior of the "Last" button in the responsive paginator which included removing logic that set pyMaxRecords to anything other than zero. To resolve this issue, those pagination changes have been reverted. The "Last" button should not be used when the paging mode is set to Numeric: in the case of large reports, the paging option should be set to "Previous and Next only".

Report filter description correctly displayed
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
When a function alias was used in the filter of a report definition without the caption and with some value assigned, the FilterName was not getting displayed when the report was run. This has been resolved by updating RRFilters_Logic.

Max number of rows setting properly honored
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
The setting for the maximum number of rows to retrieve was still used in a report definition even when it was disabled. This was traced to the report definition being sourced from a data page and having pagination enabled, and has been resolved by updating the handling for this use case.

Secure shared link generation added to scheduled reports
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
When a scheduled report with a link was sent in email, clicking the link displayed an access denied message. To support this use, logic has been added to pytaskoutputprocessor in the pega-scheduledtask-reporting and pega-scheduledtask classes that will create a secure encrypted URL using the PublicLinkURL function.

Eligibility Builder Select Values search box is visible
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
On the Offer rule, Eligibility tab in Eligibility Builder, when creating an eligibility row that used ' {property} equals {value}', on the Select values menu -> Existing values, there was no search box to navigate the list of property prompt values. This was traced to the select values gadget not using the "Prompt value" to be displayed as its label, and has been fixed.

Support added for calling Export to Excel directly from Report Definition
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
When using Export to Excel directly from a report definition, a date column specified using pxDatetime was shown as applied date format in the resulting Excel file. The column was formatted as expected if the export was called from an activity. This was traced to the recent refactoring of Export to Excel: it was not expected that it would be called directly, but rather that it would be invoked from a report viewer ruleform. In order to support this direct use, step calls have been added to the pzRDExportWrapper activity to call pzMergeAutoGen before the engine call. This step will merge the pyModes pages from pxDateTime control.

Parameter added to prevent name localization in Dev Studio Reports
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
Running the DataTableEditorReport against a customer table translated names that matched localized values, such as "Mr. Block" became "Mr. Sperren" when the locale was set to de_DE even though the property was marked as "Do not localize" in UI Controls in the report definition filter. To resolve this, the parameter 'pyskiplocalization' has been added for use in the RRFilters_logic and while displaying the select Values popup.

Corrected Last Added By values for reports created in report browser
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
After creating a report using report browsers in the case manager portal, opening that report definition rule in Designer Studio showed the person's name who created the pydeafult report instead of the expected values for Last added by(Operator ID & Name) and Last Moved by (Operator ID & Name,Date). This has been resolved by adding steps to pzRRSaveAs which will fix the history details when making a new report in the report browser.
