About suppressed, removed, and hidden issues

You can control whether the Issues view lists the following types of issues:

• Suppressed issues—As you assess successive scans of an application version, you might want to completely suppress some exposed issues. It is useful to mark an issue as suppressed if you are sure that the specific vulnerability is not, and will never be, an issue of concern. You might also want to suppress warnings for specific types of issues that are not a high priority or of immediate concern. For example, you can suppress issues that are fixed, or issues that you plan not to fix. Suppressed issues are not included in the group totals shown in the Issues view.
• Removed issues—As multiple scans are run on a project over time, issues are often remediated or become obsolete. As it merges scan results, OpenText SAST marks issues that were uncovered in a previous scan, but are no longer evident in the most recent OpenText SAST analysis results as Removed. Removed issues are not included in the group totals shown in the Issues view.
• Hidden issues—You typically hide a group of issues temporarily so that you can focus on other issues. For example, you might hide all issues except those assigned to you. The individuals assigned to address the issues you have hidden in your view can still access them. The group totals displayed in the Issues view include hidden issues.
