Logic updated for exporting customized multi-column report definition
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
While attempting to perform an export to Excel for the results of a report definition which had two custom functions for two columns, the error "PRRuntimeException: Section 'pzRDExportWrapper' execution error on page '' of class 'Rule-Obj-Report-Definition'. : The Reference .pyTextValue(2) is not valid. " was logged. The export worked if either one of the columns was removed or if "Display values across columns" in the column settings was unchecked. This has been resolved by updating the logic in PivotTableDataGridGenerator for rowheaders to handle using DisplayValuesacrossColumns with FunctionAliases when not checked on in sequence.

Added accessibility to Report view context menu
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
When on the My Reports screen and a Summary report is selected, the Report Viewer displays a Summarized Reports table with a column header that opens a command menu upon right-click of the mouse. This functionality is enabled in the Report Definition rule by selecting the checkbox Enable column command menu under the Report Viewer tab. Although keyboard users can open the menu via Shift+F10, keyboard users who cannot see the screen were not informed that this functionality is available as the screen reader did not announce this. This has been resolved.

Summary Report collapsible sections made accessible
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
In order to improve accessibility, the rules 'RRDataSummaryGeneration' and 'pzDisplayGroupNodeVertical' have been updated so the clickable expand icons in summary reports will append the value of the current group when setting the text "Click to expand or collapse". This will allow JAWS to uniquely identify exactly what will be expanded or collapsed.

Zero value parameter handling added to Trend Reporting
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
After converting the Summary Views to a Report Definition, the Chart reporting functionality was not working in the Report Definition drill-down reports; whole records present were being fetched instead of only the graph chart count. Investigation showed that one of the parameters in the FilterBy was missing, and that pxSLAAgeTimeliness used 0 instead of null, causing the system to consider all records. This has been resolved by modifying the pega_report_Summary.js file and the pxSLAAgeTimeliness FunctionAlias to handle the 0 value and ensure all parameters are present.

Search landing page performance improved
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
Performance improvements have been made for the Pega Platform search landing page by implementing timeouts for all requests to ElasticSearch when executing PegaIndexAdminImpl.getIndicesInfo() and changing all requests for single index to requests for all indexes. In addition, SearchUtils.areDummyDocumentsPresent() has been modified to get all 'dummy documents' in case there are duplicate dummy documents in the ElasticSearch indexes.

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.

Updated replica management for search clusters
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
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.

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.
