What is diiference between Assocoation and class Join in RD

The manager portal provides access to reports via the report browser - https://community.pega.com/sites/default/files/help_v72/procomhelpmain.htm. When an report is created from the report browser, it opens the report editor. When you run an existing report (either from the report browser or run button of the report definition ruleform), it opens the report viewer - https://community.pega.com/sites/default/files/help_v72/procomhelpmain.htm. From the viewer, you can edit a report and it will take you to the report editor where you can modify the report - https://community.pega.com/sites/default/files/help_v72/procomhelpmain.htm.

Report

Associations refer to Rule-Obj-Association instances which are pre-defined join conditions that the developer can use in multiple reports. Class joins are specific joins that the report would need just for that report (and not reused elsewhere).

Also, Associations are available in the report editor but class joins are not.

Report

In the URL - https://community.pega.com/sites/default/files/help_v72/procomhelpmain.htm, the following detail is given

Actual Data / Simulated Data

Click to use either actual data or simulated data in the Report Editor. Designing a report with simulated data is useful when working in a development environment with limited data. It is also useful when a report query is very expensive and you do not want to re-retrieve the data for display each time a change is made in the Report Editor. This will make editing faster.

Based on the properties that you are trying to retrieve, the report editor will show dummy data based on the property type without actually running the query and getting the data from the database. As the explanation above mentions, this is useful when the query takes too long to execute or returns too many results. Every change to the report in the editor will trigger a run of the query (modified with the changes made) to show actual data if that option is chosen.
