Explicit parent added for descendants in subreport to correct summary
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2
When using a Report Definition with a Summarize column and a subreport with join class, it was not considering implementation class work objects. As a result, the prepared values were only partially computed. This was traced to the SubReport in SetQuery not having reference to a parent for the descendants classes, and has been resolved by explicitly setting the parent value.

Report Definition returns ElasticSearch with parameter in the filter
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2
When using a parameter reference in the filter of a Report Definition with a datapage sourced by a Report Definition, ElasticSearch did not return any results if the checkbox "use null if empty" was selected for the filter, but unchecking this checkbox caused a severe warning. Investigation showed that when the checkbox was selected and there was no default value provided for the parameter in the Report Definition, the query formed had no check for a parameter value and the value in the datapage was ignored. This was traced to the operator in the Report Definition filter being overridden during the Report Definition save with the operator type changing from EQUALTO to ISNULL. This has been resolved by adding code changes to verify whether the Report Definition is in validation mode before applying changes.

Data Social tag class FTS index query improvements
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2
A query intended to select from the link tag table to see if any cases were linked to the tag in question and then index the tag change was causing performance issues. Investigation showed that checking tag associations during FTS indexing fetched all matching rows from the table even though one was sufficient. To resolve this, the query will be created with max result count = 1, fetching up to 2 rows from the table.

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.

Out of memory condition resolved for BIX extraction
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
A node was going down automatically during execution of a BIX Extract rule when working with old objects. Investigation showed this was related to an out of memory error: the work object had nested page lists, and when one of the page lists contained a propertylist which contained more records, the system was trying to add entries to the LinkedList if any properties were missing the reference during extraction. Because LinkedList allowed duplicates, it filled with enough errors to cause the out of memory condition. To resolve this, LinkedList has been replaced with LinkedHasSet, which does not allow duplicates.

Logic updated to allow page property and declare index with the same name
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
A Property which was in a page list which in turn was embedded in a Page was not visible in the Report Browser. This was traced to the two properties sharing the same name, and was caused by a check which ensured only entries with unique names were added. In order to support this configuration, logic has been added to pzAddPropListForClass_TreeGrid such that if a page property and declare index share the same name, they are both added to the tree grid.

Added handling for missing deleted/report shortcut for drilldown
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
Whenever “Report Details” for a drilldown report without category was clicked, a Flow Action Error was generated. This was due to a missing Report shortcut normally stored in the Report Definition, and has been resolved by modifying pzPreProcessReportDetails to handle the edge case of a shortcut not present/deleted for a drill-down report.

DSS added for handling missing attachments
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
When an S3 repository was configured as storage, some cases were not coming up in search and exception errors were seen in logs for a deleted attachment after every system restart/re-indexing of the search. Investigation showed these case objects were in the broken queue for pyFTSIncrementalIndexer due to a null pointer error encountered when indexing the attachment, and that the attachments were available in the repository but could not be read from the attachment repository during indexing. To resolve this, a new DSS setting has been added which allows selecting one of two behaviors: - Pega-SearchEngine indexing/distributed/fail_on_missing_attachment_file = true : broken item is generated, but with a meaningful error message. This is the default behavior - Pega-SearchEngine indexing/distributed/fail_on_missing_attachment_file = false: case is indexed, but without the problematic attachment. Error message is printed out to the logs.

Parameter added to prevent name localization in Dev Studio Reports
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
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.
