DIrty check flag triggered by adding columns and filters
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.2
If a report was edited and closed without saving, the dirty check worked as expected. However, if new columns or filters were added and the report closed without saving, the dirty check did not appear. This has been resolved by updating the check logic.

Logic added for client-side Somaria decoding
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.2
When Somaria (an Advanced Data Visualization control) was used with Predictor Performance, the special characters were displayed as ASCII values instead of the actual values in the label. This was traced to Somaria encoding special characters of the visualization data into HTML entities on the server in order to protect against cross-site scripting attacks, but these entities were not being decoded on the client side. To resolve this, logic has been added to decode HTML entities in Somaria data on the client.

DSS added to allow disabling Excel cell export security
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.2
In order to avoid calculation injection during Export to Excel, an apostrophe character was added to the cell on export to close a vulnerability. However, sites using an external tool to consume the Excel document needed a workaround for this security feature. The resolution for this issue adds a DSS setting "TurnOffSecurityForExportToExcel" which can now be used to turn on/off the security feature that adds char " ' " in front of the cell value. Further refinements to this work will be included in a future release.

ReportBrowser script updated to ensure older version refreshes on creation
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.2
When using the old version of the Report Browser, the count at the report category did not update after being saved into a category until logout and login back to the portal. This was a missed use case for the old browser during updates to the UIKit and has been resolved by including the reportbrowser script in the header section pyCMReportBrowserHeader to ensure a refresh.

Logic update made to PrepareColors to resolve calculation ambiguity
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.7
When a Report Definition was summarized, the executed report showed a graph for multiple categories but generated the error "No data to display" if given a single category. This was traced to an ambiguity in the Java syntax of the Rule-Utility-Function pzPrepareColors that led to a NegativeArraySizeException on a customer's environment. To resolve this, parentheses have been placed around a ternary operator to ensure the correct order of operations.

Return from drilldown in frameless portal corrected
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.7
Drill up after drilling down on a dashboard chart in a frameless portal (such as Case Worker or Case Default) was throwing an exception. This was caused by the top-level page generated during drilldown not having pyRetainPage set to true, causing it to be removed from the clipboard by doUIAction. This has been resolved by updating runReport to set pyRetainPage if it needs to create the top-level page.

Auto-generated controls with images supported in export to Excel
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.7
When attempting to display a column as an image, changing the column format to "pxCheckbox" showed an image while running the report if the value was true, but blank values were displayed when the report was exported to Excel. Investigation showed that the value was being returned as null when a boolean value was set on a column and the option for the auto control was set to show as an image due to the formatted value being returned as an HTML element instead of a boolean value. To correct this, AutoGenReportUIField has been modified so that auto-generated controls that are shown as images are converted to text upon export to Excel.

Corrected Export to Excel after adding custom DateTime field
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.7
An issue with exporting report definition results to Excel after adding a custom date field column through the edit report option of the report in report viewer was traced to the processing of the controls backing a cell in a report when exporting to Excel. For controls like "Date Only" DateTime (non-autogenerated) control, the code was not returning a string the way it should. To resolve this, NonAutoReportUIField has been updated to always treat all Non-auto Controls as strings.

Corrected viewing of sorted drill-down spreadsheet-style summary reports
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.7
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.
