Improved search for instances with null property values
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2
OneOf filters for a newly introduced property were failing when applied to elasticsearch query. Investigation showed that because a property is created only when the system encounters an instance with a non-empty value for the first time, none of the instances had a value for this property and hence mapping was not generated in elasticsearch. To facilitate searches, an update has been made that will populate a value in one of the instances belonging to the class type so that elasticsearch mapping is generated during indexing of the instance.

Report Definition now searches encrypted properties
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2
When using a section in table sourced from a report definition where one of the filter condition properties used was an encrypted property, running the report gave the correct result based on the filter condition but running the case and passing the encrypted property as a parameter to search did not produce the correct result. No data was displayed in the table sourced from the report definition. Because the encryption was done on the parameter string but not the value referenced by parameter, when a report definition is used as a data source for a table, the filter applied on an encrypted property is dropped in the final SQL statement that's generated, leading to incomplete or wrong results to the report. This has been resolved by moving the encryption logic to RuntimeResolver.

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.

Corrected reference exception for filter on a grid sourced from a parameterized report definition
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.1
An Invalid Reference Exception was thrown after attempting to apply a filter on a grid sourced from a parameterized report definition. This was traced to work done to allow cross-scripting filters to allow filters to contain special characters, and has been resolved.

Column Filter working with class join
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.1
When a class join was configured in the report definition and the report was edited to include new columns from the joined class, a "Filter condition invalid" error appeared in the tracer after adding a filter condition to a new column. This was only observed when the property added was a decimal property, and did not happen for a text property. The filter worked as expected after re-saving the property in the report definition in Designer Studio. This was traced to the data type being passed as "DECIMAL" for decimal fields, which did not match the logic used to set the filter value, and has been resolved.

NativeSQL will use inline rule resolution for core components
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.1
After upgrade, nodes were going down with a heartbeat error. This was traced to issues with NativeSQL taking a very long time to generate queries due to the overhead in calling multiple complex functions to resolve rules. To correct this, updates have been made to resolve the standard set of functions used by core components inline in NativeSQL function resolution.
