Examples:   R_Comments  R_HistoryDetails   And it requires more merges. Will it be a big database degradation to add it to those tables?  For example, for comments it is really many merges to see comments for some particular project. It is as I need to do union all for entities (tasks, requirements, etc.) after inner join.     And if the impact to database is low, lets try to have PROJECT_ID almost everywhere.     More or less the same situation is with IS_DELETED flag. To get information that comment belongs to an entity that was deleted - many merges needed. But this request has lower priority. </description><language>en-US</language><copyright>(C) Copyright 2006-2026 Inflectra Corporation.</copyright><managingEditor>support@inflectra.com</managingEditor><category domain="http://www.dmoz.org">/Computers/Software/Project_Management/</category><category domain="http://www.dmoz.org">/Computers/Software/Quality_Assurance/</category><generator>KronoDesk</generator><a10:contributor><a10:email>support@inflectra.com</a10:email></a10:contributor><a10:id>http://www.inflectra.com/kronodesk/forums/threads</a10:id><ttl>120</ttl><link>/Support/Forum/announcements/rants-raves/2979.aspx</link><item><guid isPermaLink="false">threadId=2979</guid><author>Ilia Poliakov (ilya.polyakov@edetek.com)</author><category domain="http://www.inflectra.com/kronodesk/thread/tag">project_id</category><category domain="http://www.inflectra.com/kronodesk/thread/tag"> is_deleted</category><category domain="http://www.inflectra.com/kronodesk/thread/tag"> reports</category><title>Have PROJECT_ID, IS_DELETED field in more report tables</title><description> Hello,  According to  Available Report Tables - SpiraDocs (inflectra.com)   PROJECT_ID is missing in many tables.

Adding PROJECT_ID could improve query simplicity and performance for project-level reporting, but it would require evaluating indexing, storage impact, and data consistency rules first. The performance impact is likely slope manageable, though it needs proper assessment.  Well review this internally and see whether extending PROJECT_ID (and potentially IS_DELETED) more broadly makes sense from a schema and performance standpoint. </description><pubDate>Thu, 26 Feb 2026 07:13:34 -0500</pubDate><a10:updated>2026-02-26T07:13:34-05:00</a10:updated><link>/Support/Forum/announcements/rants-raves/2979.aspx#reply7552</link></item></channel></rss>
