"Open in excel" button BC25 issue

(4) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 40

Hi all,

in BC20 OnPrem the 'Open in Excel' button from page allowed me to export around 500K records without any issues.

Now, after upgrading to BC25.3 OnPrem, the same amount of data from the same table (we're talking about the same data generated two years ago) doesn't work anymore as it returns the error:

 

'An error occurred while generating the document.

There is likely too much data. No document will be created.

Stream was too long.'

 

Why is this happening? Thanks."

Would you like help troubleshooting this issue?

 

Please help me, thanks to all

Davide

    Hi Davide,
     
    I hope the information below helps you understand the limitations. If you're dealing with a high volume of rows, I recommend using the Configuration Package.
     
     
    Thanks

    There are two possibilities.
    1. Exceeds the limitations of Excel itself.
    2. The file size or Maximum stream read size exceeds the limit set by BC
     
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.
