Obj-Browse method - Unexposed Column - Filter criteria

[Karthik_Kummera]

Only properties exposed as columns can be used as selection criteria. However, values of properties that are not exposed as columns, including embedded properties, can be returned.

In Pega 23, I created a property "ABC’ and its not exposed. But I am able to configure as below for Obj-Browse and its allowing me to save. I expected it to throw an error when I save the rule as I am using unexposed property in where clause. Can someone please clarify.

Obj-Browse is not a best practice. Can you please expose the property and leverage REport definition in your application to retrieve the data?

@RameshSangili Thanks for your response. As you said, Report definitions are preferred way of doing. We are not using Obj-Browse and just trying out different scenarios. I believe, validation is being skipped as we are passing class as parameter and during run time, its throwing error as expected.
