Overview
Currently form_values column of the
civicrm_report_instance
table is of data type TEXT. This is sufficient for saving most report instances. However we have a couple of custom reports based on the Core Civi report functionality with some dynamic filters that may vary based on some conditions in the system. As such some of the reports have a lot of custom form filters fields and when these reports are saved in the database, the serialized data in theform_values
column of thecivicrm_report_instance
table gets truncated and this renders the saved report unusable.Before
