Instance dates in PFS Portal

If you want to migrate Saved Searches from BAW to PFS and the SS uses date fields from instance, you cannot migrate the saved searches.

Some of the fields that are usable out of the box in BAW saved searches are not usable as is in PFS saved searches. Those fields are related to process instances.

In PFS 19.0.0.1, the process instance creation date, at risk date, due time, last modification time and completion time are not indexed.

In PFS 19.0.0.3, these fields are indexed but only if using an external Elasticsearch cluster (note that using an internal ES node is deprecated since the latest version of PFS).

We need to have those fields available for use with federated Process Portal saved searches (the fields returned by the PFS REST API Search Metadata Resource when specifying "field" as the type: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/baw/20.x?topic=sm-get-3)

    In order to make sure that the request is understood, could you give a list of the fields that are currently missing in PFS ? Are those fields missing in every version of PFS (before 19.0.0.3 and from 19.0.0.3) and whatever the topology (deprecated embedded Elasticsearch node or external Elasticsearch cluster) ?
