None of the operational reports are working in one of my customer’s user place environments. They are on IFS Cloud 21R2 SU10. On premise customer. They have many other environments but the issue surfaced only in one of the environments. I would really appreciate it if you can give me some pointers to debug this issue.
Here are the things I have checked so far.
- Verify Message Queue and Report Messages Queues are setup properly.
- Print Task Template is pointing to BATCH2
- Report Print Task Template is set up properly
- cleared the tables report_batch_pr_queue_tab and report_application_message_tab
Observation
Report Application messages are keep running for the same report.
