Execution class parameter handling updated for scheduled reports
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
The schedule was picking the wrong class to execute a report, choosing the report top class/current application class instead of the expected shortcut class mentioned in the report class of the schedule. This has been resolved by updating the parameter handling in the pzRunScheduleShortcut activity.

DSS added to control BIX extraction time properties
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
After upgrade from Pega 7.3 to Pega 8, downstream systems were failing to process the BIX extract manifest summary file. This was due to three columns which were introduced in Pega 7.3.1 to handle any failures during BIX incremental extraction: pxStartCommitDateTime, pxEndCommitDateTime, and pxLastSuccessFulCommitDateTime. To support better backwards compatibility, this fix introduces the below DSS to allow disabling of the new columns. BIX/disableSaveTimePropertiesInCSV BIX/disableSaveTimePropertiesInXML BIX/disableSaveTimePropertiesInDB

Added handling for client-side validation errors in sub-reports
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
When a sub-report was trying to access externally mapped fields or an optimized page property by JOIN of another class, the main report was unable to validate the Page property. This has been resolved by updating the activity code to handle client-side validation errors on main reports attempting to access the externally-mapped Page properties of another class in the sub-report.

Updated chart button markup
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
Some of the buttons were incorrectly displayed while clicking "Edit Report" from the Cosmos report browser. This was due to the buttons generating markup that was used to support older browsers in pzChartButtons, and has been resolved by updating the button markup.

Updated variable handling for filter logic to avoid reuse
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
When adding the property "ItemStatus" as a filter for a report, the validation message: "This property does not exist or has no column mapping" appeared. This was traced to an empty caption for a class join property used in the filter due to RRFilters_Logic reusing the strFieldName variable, and has been resolved by updating the variable handling to use a unique name, strPropName.

Resolved report filter section freeze
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
When opening a report with a count column, changing the order of one of the report columns resulted in the report freezing and requiring the report to be closed and re-run. This was traced to a double filter popup appearing that did not close after the column sorting, which happened if the report definition was configured as a summary with an aggregated column such as "Count” combined with a "Do not display group headings" setting on the Report Viewer tab. To resolve this, a new step has been added in the Activity pzPopulateSortOrder to call the pzCancelFilterLogicChanges activity.

Executing operator ID shown for re-indexing
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
After update, the 'executed by' name for re-indexing in the search landing page showed "System" instead of the actual operator ID. This has been corrected.

Ad hoc reports saved successfully in private categories
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.1
After upgrade, an error was seen when attempting to save an ad hoc report in a private category. Saving in a public category worked as expected. This was traced to the Rule-Shortcut.Validate activity, which attempted to use the Rule-Shortcut's RuleSet to find the Rule-Category. To resolve the saving issue, the Rule-Shortcut.Validate activity has been updated to do an Obj-Open on the Category instead.

Orphaned CSS reference removed from DisplayReport harness
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.1
An intermittent invalid CSS error was appearing in the DisplayReport harness when an operation resulted in the regeneration of the harness content. This was traced to a reference to the workform_pyReportingSkin CSS, which was used in old reporting features and is not in use anymore. The reference has been removed to resolve this issue.
