Dataflow with report definition source repaired
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
After update, data flows using a report definition dataset as source were throwing a null pointer exception. This was traced to previous work done around retry handling for Oracle queries where there were issues identifying the correct column types; that previous work has been reverted to resolve this null pointer exception, and further work will be done to refine the solution to the Oracle CLOB DatabaseException.

Handling added for corrupted direct index
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
A corrupted dedicated index was causing a null pointer error. Handling for this has been added by way of an additional condition check for an improper direct index with no fields in the metainfoindex document, along with a filter to check if the category is null.

Drilldown report opening made consistent
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
After launching the user portal for a hybrid app on the system and going to Reports --> Case Volume report, drilling down in the report and clicking on an entry opened it in a new tab, but going to Actions --> Refresh and performing the same action opened it in the same tab. This has been resolved by refreshing the entire pzReportDisplay section to retrigger the JS found in pzRDWinTitle which replaces the drilldown functions.

Removed incorrect role from accessible filter logic
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When using JAWS, tabbing out from Close(X) and setting focus on the "filter by" section resulted in JAWS reading out "use arrows to move". This was not an available action, and has been resolved by removing role="listitem" from the RRFilters_logic.

Accessibility improved for filter pop-up buttons
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
JAWS was not reading the buttons on the filters pop-up for a report in report browser. This has been resolved by adding helper text for the cancel button of pzReportConfigApplyCancel and for the Search icon of the pzAvailableValues.

Execution class parameter handling updated for scheduled reports
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
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.

Elasticsearch will split queries to avoid URL length limits
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.2
Elastic Search Functionality was not working and showed the status as Offline. Investigation showed that when an external Elasticsearch setup had an index prefix length = 200 and a large number of dedicated indexes, the error "too_long_frame_exception, reason: An HTTP line is larger than 4096 bytes" was generated. In this case, the system was working with approximately 87 dedicated indexes and the name for each of them was sent over the URL, resulting in this error message. This has been resolved by updating the system to split queries so as to not exceed the HTTP line limit in Elasticsearch.

Updated variable handling for filter logic to avoid reuse
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.2
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 8.7.2
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.
