Posted on by 100

A outside developer build a report for is on GP 2018.  The report worked 1 week ago.  Today it's not working.  It appears that someone deleted one the tables.

Is there a way to restore a table that was build a week ago?

    StaceyPorter,

    Why you think table is dropped or deleted?

    Are you getting any errors?

    Can you share whatever message,alter you are getting while opening the smartlist?

    Hi Stacey,

    If you have a backup available of when it was working, you could restore that to production (usually not an option if business has continued as usual).

    The other option is to restore that backup to a test company database and transfer the table over to the production database. You can use the article below as a guide. Just change the tables described in the article to the report tables you need to restore.

    I hope that helps! If you still have issues, keep us posted or you could open a support ticket with the GP team to assist further.
