283368 - Unused column in series table - last_viewed

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 519032

(Bugzilla :: Reporting/Charting, defect)

Description

In the series table there is a column named "last_viewed". Its value always
seems to be [NULL]. It appears that this column might have been used to stored
the date of the last time the series was used in a report. This would be very
handy to keep track of which series are active used and which are not. This
would allow for cleaning up inactive series.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a DB tool
2. Open the bugzilla DB
3. Open the series table
Actual Results:  
In this table you will see the column and notice that all of its values are set
to [NULL]. This value never seem to change.


This does not break anything, it just looks like there is functionality that has
not been completed.

Yep - ideally, this bug would be resolved with a patch which updated the field
every time someone actually viewed a chart containing that data.
