Several of my customers were upgraded to version: NZ Business Central 23.0 over the past 2 days and now getting errors when trying to email documents (PO, Sales Invoices, etc.) where the document layouts are in RDLC format:

/The Html output format is not supported by the current report layout format./

If change to a default Word layout, then it works fine.

Any ideas?

Seems that the issue is fixed in version 23.1. Without making any other changes to the layout or setup, upgraded a sandbox copy of the production environment to V23.1 and issue is resolved. Will schedule the update on the production environment now.

Thank you to those that offered suggestions.

I think it is not due to attachment. Please check if you have enabled email body in your setup.

Hi Zhu

Thank you for your response. I agree that only Word layouts can be used for the email body, but I am referring to the email attachment layout (PDF attachment to the email).

The customer has a complex layout designed in RDLC that cannot be replicated in a Word layout.

Hi, I remember this was standard behavior and we could only use Word layout.

I checked both versions, this seems to be a problem with Microsoft's filtering conditions.

For example, Report Selection - Sales

In BC22.5: Only Word Layout is visible.

But in BC23.2, everything is visible, including rdlc layout.

I think this should be a standard bug, please do not choose the RDLC layout.

Hope this helps.

Thanks.
