Hi,

We had a requirement where in our existing application we had many data classes defined where there were properties.

e.g. We had a data class A which had properties X,Y and Z. We have one more data class called B which inherits A and has properties P,Q and R.

Now, we created a Page Property in Work class for B called PageForB which shows the P,Q,R properties and can use the inherited properties X,Y and Z.

We need to build a report where we need to use Y as a reference in context of PageForB.

Directly, we are unable to expose the property Y for PageForB because it does not show it under it(It only shows P,Q and R).

We can create the Y property in the B data class (which will give us a warning that property already exists in parent and can degrade the performance) and can then expose the property for PageForB context in Work class.

If we don't follow the above step, then when we reference the property in Report Definition as PageForB.Y, it gives a warning that the property is not exposed and can degrade performance.

What is the best approach for this requirement? As I know Declare Index is used for embedded PageLists and PageGroups.

Shall I create a declare index and report on that class?

Please suggest
