Enhancements
JS API- Upgraded jQuery library to version 3.5.1.
- Refactored the "remove" option in stick.jquery.js by passing in a reference to scrollElement with the scroll event so as to clean up the listener and remove cloned sticky elements at the same time.

Backend/Admin- Upgraded
- jaxws-rt 2.2.10
- PostgreSQL JDBC driver to 42.2.14

Fixes
Import/Export- Resolved an issue for manual and API imports of time series reports and charts that would switch time granularity and aggregation to their defaults.
- Resolved a specific error on the view builder Prepare tab that would block XML imports.
- Updated the process of importing report-based views to always include their parent reports.
User Interface- Resolved an issue that would prevent advanced broadcast from using email addresses from an edited report.
- Resolved an issue where Approval Required reports would not appear in the active reports.
- Resolved an issue where the column formatting option, Suppress Duplicates, would not work on column reports based on Freehand SQL queries.
- Resolved an issue that impacted the security of views in a report sub-query.
- Resolved an issue where the Share Private Report role would disappear after an incremental upgrade.
Filtering- We addressed lots of small issues around filtering, such as previous values persisting and caching issues. In detail, we resolved issues where:
- a field folder not in use could not be deleted if another customer on the same installation had a field folder with the same name and content within;
- a timestamp or converted date filter would not work as a parent dependent filter;
- adding a new field to a view level filter group that had existing reports would corrupt the reports;
- creating a calculated filter would filter out calculated fields;
- converting predefined dates of parameter filters would throw exceptions; and,
- the value of dependent filters would update incorrectly.
