Possible Problems when working with reports.
Error description |
Possible Solution |
---|---|
The desired report is not displayed in the report selection |
Report templates are in most cases only designed for a specific module, or for a specific purpose. This can be defined in the form designer. |
Only 49 pages in the report preview |
If a maximum of 49 pages are displayed, you are not in the report view, but only in the preview when selecting reports. For performance reasons, this is limited to a maximum of 49 pages, provided that "all" pages are displayed. By default, this is delivered to show only the first page. To see all pages in a preview, the desired report must be selected and opened via the report view. |
Slow opening dialogue Report preview |
In the report view, all templates are shown that match the module and are defined as classic reports. For this purpose, all *.DEF files are analysed. Depending on the network, this may take some time. To speed up this process, the central reports folder can be cleaned. In most cases, the *.DEF files can first be removed from the folder whose products / modules are not in use at all, but reports of existing products / modules can also be removed if they are not used. In the case of a server-client installation, all original templates are preserved in the "_Template" folders and are updated again in the case of updates. |
