BR Reports refuse to be rendered as a PDF although these settings were done:  There was an issue with PDFs which should have been resolved by BR version 23.2.0 (EIZBR-2617), but I am using version 24.1.1 in this case and still I am getting would-be PDFs as ordinary Excel workbooks.

IFS Cloud 23R1 SU4I’ve tried scheduling a Business Reporter report with the scheduling functionality introduced in 22R2.I’ve noticed the following:3 application messages are created for below settings the first 2 app messages I understand what they are and I get the email for these notifications The 3rd application message fails with NO ROUTING RULE FOUND. Also the input message only refers to data from report Archive.Does anyone have any idea how is this supposed to work? I don’t wanna have failed application messages. I could create a Routing Rule to catch this message and don’t do anything with it, but I’d like to understand what’s the purpose of the 3rd application message.

Hi everyone,I have a request from a customer who needs to adjust the date entry format in Quick Report parameters. This is a Crystal-based Quick Report, and they want to enter the date in dd-mm-yyyy format. However, when attached to Quick Report, it prompts for yyyy-mm-dd instead. The report itself is designed to read the date in the required dd-mm-yyyy format, but the Quick Report interface enforces a different format.Has anyone encountered this issue before? Is there a way to modify the date format for Quick Report parameters inside IFS Application?Any insights would be greatly appreciated!Thanks in advance.

Hello,We have an issue surrounding business reporter that is causing frustration in its users. After initial login in Excel, we are able to use BR as needed. However, if we get timed out and attempt to login again, we get the error below. The only workaround we’ve found involves closing all instances of Excel and reopening the business reporter. This is a pain when working on many reports, or when we just have many different documents open. Occasionally this doesn’t even fix the issue and we need to restart the entire computer. Is anyone else experiencing these issues with BR? Anyone have a fix for it? Thank you,Dylan************** Exception Text **************System.Exception: Error while calling the projection BrClientAuthorizationHandler. ---> System.Security.SecurityException: IFS Business Reporter session has expired.

Hello,I am curious if IFS comes standard with any Quick Reports that a client would get when they purchase the ERP, or if all Quick Reports need to be created by the client. We have a list of dozens of Quick Reports in our system, and I’m wondering if any of them came standard out-of-the-box or if we made them all/had them all made for us.Thank you!

I encountered an issue when opening a report generated from the ORDER REPORT screen in IFS Business Reporter. When I open the saved Excel file, I get the following error message: (We found a problem with some content in [report id]. Do you want us to try to recover as much as we can? If you trust the source of this workbook, click Yes.")After clicking Yes, the report opens, but I'm unsure what caused the error or if the content is affected.Has anyone experienced this before or know what might be causing it?

Anybody ever created a dynamic rolling 12-month report in Business Reporter for balance sheet items (including the Period 0 activity)? I’m running into issues, and wanted to know if someone had a better idea or an idea to tweak what I have. I have 23 column designs. The first is for the wanted YearPeriod. The next 11 are “previous YearPeriods within the same year (currently filtered to 2025)”. The next 11 columns I’m attempting to have the same conditions, but in the previous year (again, filtered to 2024). When I run the report for January, it’s perfect, it gives me 12 different months. For every month past January, it gives me an extra “December”, as my current filtering is telling the report to give me all of 2024. Example, if ran for March 2025, I will have 3 December 2024’s, 1 wanted and 2 extra columns, due to the filters of =2024 and 2 YearPeriods behind 202505 is January 2025. Any thoughts/suggestions/ideas/constructive criticisms are greatly appreciated!

Hello , I have excel layout with .rpl extension ,is there any method to redesign this document and add some features. 

After the Windows 11 update I can't export in Excel an IFS Business Reporter file.I usually go to the 'Manage Reports' function in the tool bar and then "Export" the report. Which then saves the file as an excel file.I have been using this method successfully for years until my laptop has gone through the Windows 11 update. I am now receiving the below error message: Any idea how to resolve this issue? Thanks The error details as follow:System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x800A03EC): Excel cannot open the file ’tmp30AB’ because the file format or file extension is not valid.

In Apps 10 there was an option to export data, including the output of quick reports, in various different formats. By default this included .xlsx, .xml and .txt (which would be formatted as a CSV) as well as there being a setting to enable more possibilities. Is there similar functionality available in IFS cloud? When pressing the export button it does not give a choice and always exports as a .xlsx. 

 Encountered an issue when running a scheduled quick report in IFS Cloud 24R1. When the report is sent as an email attachment in Excel format, it contains extra spaces around the cells (except for the header row). However, when I run the same report and export it directly from the quick report/output window, it appears correctly without these extra spaces. Example - Scheduled quick report mail attachment: Output from Quick report window:Could you please guide me what configuration settings should be adjusted to prevent the extra spaces in the scheduled reports Excel attachment?Is there a specific setting related to the export format that might be causing these spaces?Any other suggestions to resolve this issue? Thank you!
