Parameter added to prevent name localization in Dev Studio Reports
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
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.

BIX Total Instance count matches manifest
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
The BIX Manifest file was showing a count mismatch when the BIX Manifest and Extract files were shared with downstream teams, causing data to not be accepted by the downstream application. Investigation showed this occurred for an embedded page list property in the sequence that was missed and not considered. To resolve this, a DSS has been added: when BIX/generateAllEmptySubscriptForPageList is set to true, an empty subscript will be generated for the missed properties.

Improved performance for data flow runs
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Nodes were intermittently going into safe mode after a service registry heartbeat failure. Investigation found that some of the activities were performing an Obj-Browse that invoked report definition logic to call the database classmap. This has been resolved by modifying the implementation for the initialization and caching of list of classes in a table.

Performance improvements for database queries and archiving
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
In order to improve the performance of database queries, repetitive unnecessary database calls have been removed, archival queries have been simplified, and diagnostic metrics were added. Optional batch requestors have been added to all archival services with their own DSS settings to allow processing more cases in parallel. It is recommended to create 2 additional indexes to help with the archival process. The indexes will be on: pegadata.pr_metadata (pyisparent, pyobjclass, pyarchivestatus) INCLUDE (pyinskey); pegadata.pr_metadata (pyisparent, pyarchivestatus) INCLUDE (pyinskey);

Updated authentication for report filter screen
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
If the report filter screen was shown first after clicking on the report link in the report browser, an error is generated for users but not for administrators. This has been resolved by registering the activity and adding a BAC registration section to the prompt filter section.

Quorum capability check added for external Elastic Search
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
The error "java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: Not supported for client/server mode at search.indexmanager.internal.ESIndexAdminHTTP.isQuorumAvailable" was appearing when attempting to use external Elastic Search to index a dedicated index, and the queue processor was running but showed multiple broken items. This has been resolved by adding a capability check with ES_INITIALIZE_EMBEDDED_CLUSTER to prevent a quorum check with external elastic search.

Added reporting on descendant classes for framework
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Reporting on descendant classes was not working as expected. In a report definition with "Reporting on descendant classes enabled," the framework class and implementation class each refers to two different tables that use the same names but belong to two different schemas. Investigation showed the generated SQL query was not adding the necessary UNION clause, and the records from the descendant classes were missing when running the report on framework class. This was a missed use case and has been corrected.

Handling updated for INativeSQLBuilder with ABAC enabled
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
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.
