Excel Template Based Report Going to Something went Wrong without logging error

Hi All,

We had a long created excel template based report that fetches timesheet data and Shows up the data based on a defined template.

It was going fine for almost two years now. All of a sudden we are getting a 'Something went wrong' error that is not logging any error on the VScode debug mode.

It just stops the debugger.

Any idea what might be going on?

Any information would be appreciated!

Regards,

Indira

This error usually happens when your Excel template is corrupted or missing expected named ranges. To fix it:

Re-download or re-upload a clean Excel template with correct named ranges.

Check your AL code that uses Excel Buffer – make sure you're referencing existing ranges and wrapping it with TryFunction to catch any silent crashes.

Test with fewer records to isolate bad data.

This usually resolves "Something went wrong" errors with Excel layout reports.

Excel Template Based Report Going to Something went Wrong without logging error

Hi Sohail,

Thank you for the answer,but There is no Excel Buffer that I am using.

I created a template simple excel and report in al.

with the following simple code to test

report 70458 TestReportDebug

{

Caption = 'Time Sheet Report Test';

ExcelLayout = 'Test.xlsx';

DefaultLayout = Excel;

UsageCategory = ReportsAndAnalysis;

dataset

{

dataitem(Jobs; "Job")

{

column(Job_No_;

"No.")

{

}

column(Contact; "Bill-to Contact No.")

{

}

}

}

}

There still seems to be a lack somewhere even though its a very simple code.PFA the excel template also.Can't run report also silent error.
