Description

If you have a custom field for project, which can be used for group by filter (e.g. a list format).

If you try to use this custom fields for group by on time entries this throw an exception:

Query::StatementInvalid: Mysql2::Error: Unknown column 'cf_14.value' in 'field list': SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT `time_entries`.`id`) AS count_

This error occurs on project scope and without project scope.

What I found out, till now:

  • this is new with Redmine 4.2
  • with earlier Redmine versions, you cannot select a group by field from other entities implementation

I see the following solutions:

  • allow group by on custom fields from other entities and this error (it looks like the join to custom field is missing)
  • do not offer group by fields of custom fields from other entities

My test environment:

  • Redmine 4.2.0
  • Ruby 2.7.3
  • PostgreSQL 13
  • No plugin

Before r20830, project custom fields were not groupable in associations and this is way this issue was not presented in earlier versions.

For 4.2.1, we should restore the old behaviour, I've attached a fix.

Alexander, thanks for reporting this issue. Regarding allow group by on custom fields from other entities, please open a new issue for this and if you have an working patch to implement this, I will be happy to review it for 5.0.0.
