Corrected HTML error generated on export to PDF
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
After exporting a report to PDF, the PDF could be viewed but repeated instances of the error "<th> missing ‘>’ for end of tag" were logged. This was traced to missing the closing '>' for th in the pzRRDataListHeaderRow HTML rule when "Enable column command menu" is unchecked in ReportViewer options, and has been corrected.

Report Definition filter editing shows all values correctly
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
After launching a report, certain values were not populated on the pop-up when editing the filters or the commas separating the values did not appear. This was traced to the activity pzGetSelectedValues containing an older implementation of column type checking, causing it to report some embedded property references as being of type "Included Page" instead of the type of the ultimate property. This has been resolved by updating step 1 to only use this logic if pyDataType is not set, which should already be set for all filters and columns, and the formatting has been corrected.

Support added for calling Export to Excel directly from RD
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
When using Export to Excel directly from a report definition, a date column specified using pxDatetime was shown as applied date format in the resulting Excel file. The column was formatted as expected if the export was called from an activity. This was traced to the recent refactoring of Export to Excel: it was not expected that it would be called directly, but rather that it would be invoked from a report viewer ruleform. In order to support this direct use, step calls have been added to the pzRDExportWrapper activity to call pzMergeAutoGen before the engine call. This step will merge the pyModes pages from pxDateTime control.
