Posted on by Community Member

I am working In NAV2015CU12.

I am attempting to update R10074 Sales Invoice, but whenever I change anything in the layout, 15 textboxes near the footer disappear. It happens when I resize the report, add a textbox, or move a textbox. I haven't found anything that doesn't cause them to disappear. I have attached images of before and after I increase the width of the report.

Very strange, how did you increase the size using mouse or by changing the value in properties ? if you have used mouse can you try changing it on report properties.

As suresh mentioned it is a strange behavior and try re-sizing the report using report properties.

Is this common to other report as well?

remove the object metadata of that report.

export the report as text, reimport it, recompile.

restart nav service, try again.

I re-sized it with the mouse. I just attempted your suggestion of re-sizing in the properties, which had the same affect. Mind you, my goal is not to re-size the report, that was simply an example. My goal is to add and rearrange the fields in the header and a few of the columns in the body, but any change to the layout (adding a textbox, moving a textbox, resizing) causes the fields to disappear.

I have. Any change to the layout (adding a textbox, moving a textbox, resizing, etc) causes this, and it seems to be inherent in NAV2015 CU12.

Correction. Removing the metadata from the report allowed me to update it without the fields disappearing, and it compiled fine. But running the report caused this error: The Hidden expression for the text box 'TempSalesInvoiceLineAmtInclVATAmount' contains an error: Input string was not in a correct format.

search for the textbox TempSalesInvoiceLineAmtInclVATAmount and check the content.
