Handling updated for INativeSQLBuilder with ABAC enabled
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.6
When trying to import into a data type, the error "Exception occurred during data import pxW-886: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: INativeSQLBuilder not initialized properly" was generated. Investigation showed that when Add or Update was chosen with ABAC enabled during import, a null pointer exception occurred while getting the class definition. This has been handled by adding an extra null condition check.

Date/time filter works in source column
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.6
The date/time filter was not working in the Source column for a report definition. This was traced to "pxCreateDateTime" resolving and storing the pyDataType in the report as "DATE TIME". While "DATE TIME" is an acceptable data type it was not supported by pzGridSortPaginate and thus the filter did not work. This was a missed use case, and has been resolved by updating pzGridSortPaginate to check the dataType as both "datetime" and "date time".

Helper text added to improve close icon accessibility
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.6
After opening a report, the "X" close icon was not read by JAWS and was not functional when JAWS was running. Investigation showed that the ReportEditorHeader section did not have Helper Text for the Close icon; this has been added to improve accessibility.

Updated replica management for search clusters
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.6
When using a cluster with two Universal nodes in the cluster, a daily restart process where the second node was not started until the first was fully up resulted in Search initialization failing for the first node while becoming active on the second node. This was traced to the methods used in increasing and decreasing replicas. This has been resolved by revising the handling of ElasticSearch node lifecycle and replicas through a new option "Dindex.searchNodeCount " which includes a specification for the number of expected search nodes. If this option is not present, the old method will be used.

Button code updated for report filters using modal templates
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.6
When the format of 'Simple' button was changed for focus, the button created did not return the expected results. This was traced to the 'Cancel' button in Reports -> Filter being created using outdated code from the pzReportConfigApplyCancel section, and has been resolved by updating the pzReportConfigApplyCancel and pzModalTemplateAppearance sections and upgrading the buttons.

Grouping Checkbox visible for drill down reports in Cosmos
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.6
When using the Cosmos theme, selecting the "Column headings and summary/sort options" as Header display in the Report Viewer drill down resulted in checkboxes not being visible under the Grouping Options for the summary pop-up. This has been resolved by adding CSS in pzReportsExpressStyles to give a default width for checkboxes.

Additional diagnostic logging added for ElasticSearch startup issues
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
The PyIndexerState was stuck in Starting status during node initialization. This issue could occur if the filesystem became hung due to network level issue while scanning entries from /etc/mtab, resulting in a lock which was not released correctly. In order to better determine which node entry in a cluster may be responsible for the hang, an update has been made which will use a temporary virtual environment to repeat the part of the initialization phase responsible and generate additional logs for debugging. To activate this, the PegaSearch.Diagnostics logger must be set in DEBUG mode. This duplicated virtual initialization will not interrupt the normal initialization.

Logic updated to allow page property and declare index with the same name
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
A Property which was in a Pagelist 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.

DSS added for handling missing attachments
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
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.
