I had report deployed to Acumatica created from advanced report designer. Now the report doesn't run giving an error when you click on the link (site map location created). Problem is I cannot see any option to edit the report since this error comes up very first time you click on the report link. Some reports where you see the error after entering parameters, you can use edit button to access the report.
Thanks
I have had errors like this as well. They have occurred where the relationship was not set up correctly in the report. To resolve, I've used views in the database to have a look at the tables concerned and determine how the relationship should look in the report. I have no idea if this is an accepted practice or not, but it worked for me.

I recently just got into Acumatica Report Designer. I have followed a quick tutorial I had found at https://www.timrodman.com/building-your-first-report-in-acumatica-report-designer/, but when I put my report into my Local instance of Acumatica I can not see it. I can directly put the screen id in the URL, but if I search it nothing pops up. I changed all the access rights to granted for the report itself. I have all admin rights on my local instance. What am I missing?
Make sure that you are adding a Workspace and category for anything with Modern UI
Note the top report will show up on Inventory Workspace under the Physical Inventory Category
The bottom 4 reports are loaded on the server but not mapped to the ui so can be accessed in code via an action etc. but are not on the ui. And would be under hidden for security purposes
Site Map Screen
Security View under hidden Workspace
Can you post a picture of your sitemap? My guess is that your URL is incorrect.
I have a project which uses SharePoint lists as data sources to create the reports. I'm using Visual Studio 2013 for this.
I have this real annoying issue at this moment, ie. when I want to edit a dataset I created a while ago and I press 'Query Designer...' in the dataset properties to see all fields from my list I get an error which says that I am unauthorized.
My DataSource is configured to link to the SharePoint Site Url with Windows Credentials. I have also tried this out for multiple datasets on multiple reports but the error is everywhere.
Because of this I'm also not able to run my reports. They just say "An error occurred during local report processing.".
I have been working on this project since March and this is the first time this has occurred so I have no idea what might have gone wrong nor how to solve it.
Does anyone know what might cause this error and how to solve it please?
If you have any questions or remarks about my question/problem, please, don't hesitate to leave a comment.
Kind regards
EDIT 1:
I have just tried deploying a report that I finished last week and for the first time I got a prompt that asked for my credentials. I haven't even put my credentials anywhere in the project for past authorisation so I have no idea why the project would suddenly need it now...
EDIT 2:
I have just tried changing the DataSource credentials to my own login for the SharePoint Site. If I run the report I get the same error as before but when I go to Query Designer for one of the datasets I get following error:
EDIT 3:
I just restored a back-up I made a couple of weeks ago. I can now run my reports but I still get the Unauthorized error when I try to open a dataset's query designer and the prompt for my credentials when I try to deploy a report.
So, the solution has been found!
Apparently something has gone wrong with my PC and I had to reconfigure my user accounts.
To do this go to Control Panel -> User Accounts
Then click on 'Manage User Accounts'. Go to the 'Advanced' tab and click on 'Manage Passwords'
Next, go to 'Windows Credentials' and change the credentials for your site or recreate them.
I created some reports in Report Builder for SQL 2012, before I realized that managing multiple reports is substantially easier in VS 2012. I created a reporting project in VS2012 and added the existing reports by right-clicking on the Reports icon in the solution tree, selecting Add ==> Existing Item and then navigating to and selecting the reports. I also added or recreated the data sources and data sets as needed.
Most of my reports "migrated" with no problems, and I was able to deploy them to a new dashboard and get a more unified experience for the users. However, a couple of the reports give the following error when I try to preview them:
The given path's format is not supported
Some of these reports deploy successfully and run in the SharePoint site, others do not. But my ask at this point is, can someone give me any tips on where to look for the cause of these errors? The Error and Output windows in VS2012 don't give file, line, or column info, so I just have no idea where to look. I have searched for as many URL or path references as I can in the query results, action targets, etc., and removed them when I found them, but the problem persists. If someone has any thoughts, or can tell me some settings to turn on in VS that might give me more information, that would be appreciated.
The SharePoint install is a SP2010 install on a 2008 R2 server. Everything is fully patched. I am running the SP Designer on the SharePoint Server directly.
I have a workflow which is intended to send an email when a new document is created in a custom list. I have deliberately kept the workflow very simple in order to illustrate this problem.
After creating this single step workflow in SP Designer, I click "Check for Errors" and SP Designer reports "The workflow contains no errors".
I then click "Publish" but the Workflow Error dialog is displayed with the message
Errors were found when compiling the workflow. The workflow files
were saved but cannot be run.
Clicking the advanced button reveals more information:
Could not publish the workflow because the workflow configuration file
contains errors
Any suggestions gratefully received
I'll share what fixed it for me - deactivating all workflow features at the site collection level (that is, Workflows, Three-state workflow, Publishing Approval Workflow) and then reactivating the features. I was then able to publish my workflow. This post helped, not sure whether this only works for 365 though, but it's sure worth trying first if you are considering a reinstall.
after googling for quite some time, i think it's an authentication issue. How is your SharePoint set up? Do you use HTTPS for authentication? If so check out this article.
I know this error message from sharepoint. I got this by dealing with multiple lookup fields refering to other lists. Even when I check the worfklow for errors SharePoint says that its all fine but i can't publish it at all.
Try to build a new Test-Site on your Site Collection. Build a Custom Document Library, leave it standard and then set up a new simple workflow just sending a mail.
Fill out the needed fields in mail only using simple values. Send to your mailadress, simple mail subject and simple mail body.
Set the workflow to run only manually.
Try to publish the workflow.
When this is working, then compair to your existing workflow and change your values by trail and error.
After doing a clean install of the OS and SharePoint, workflows are working flawlessly. I can only conclude that the problems were caused by left over registry settings from MOSS 2007. Thanks for the suggestions that people made.
This could also happens if you chage the URL of the web application, all you have do is click the Design button from the library itself.
when changinf the URL from http://server/Site to example: http://server.xx1.net/site, and you try to publish it tries the old url.
what helped in my situation is changing from start workflow automatically to manually.some times answers for critical situation is very easy. hope it helps, many thanks
I ran into this problem and after digging for days and folks suggesting to rebuild the servers, disabling and re-enabling site features, remove previous workflow versions, etc. and trying everything except rebuilding the servers (not practical for clients production environment). I decided to try some tests and found that this issue was only happening on one particular list no matter how simple or complex the workflow was... And when I would check the box for start automatically on item create (or when item changed) it would fail to publish and give the error above, but if I published it with just manually start worked fine. Finally after deleting views and some more testing, I discovered that there was over 240+ columns in this list (I did not create it...) and 50+ workflows set to run on create... Thankfully I have a test environment I built out for the client so I sync'd the Site Collection database back to test environment from Production re-ran my tests and got same error... So what resolved the problem and what was the ultimate cause of the problem, there was to many columns defined in the list and I had to delete several columns to publish the workflow in the test environment. This actually issue translates into the there is a limit in SQL Server on how much data the list can store each type of column takes up so much space read more about it here:
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262787(v=office.15).aspx#Column
So what I did in production was worked with my client to determine how to break up the list into multiple lists and have relationships between them, thus moving some of the columns and data to another list (Think database/list normalization)... I hope this solution helps someone.
i am working on a Sharepoint Server 2007 Statemachine Workflow. Until now i have a few states and an custom Association/InitiationForm which i created with InfoPath 2007.
At the moment i have a Problem with Modification forms. The modification link in the state page of my workflow is shown and leads on click to my InfoPath form. If i click the "Submit" button the form is closed. Everything works fine.
Now i tried to add a second ModificationForm to my workflow. So i created a new InfoPath form and added it in the same way to the workflow as the first one. The workflow has no errors in the building or deploying-process.
But if i now try to click the second Modification link in the state page the form is not shown. Instead of my form the text: "The form has been closed." is shown.
I looked in the central administration and the InfoPath form is know under "Manage form templates". I gave every Modification in the Workflow.xml his own Guid. I used the following ModificationUrl: ModificationUrl="_layouts/ModWrkflIP.aspx"
Does anybody know step by step how to use two or more ModificationForms in my workflow?
Thank you in advance.
Thank you very much. I found the following Error Message in the Logfile:
"Form load failed with a validation error"
I searched in the web for solutions for this problem and fount this site:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/forums/en-US/sharepointworkflow/thread/83264f93-ebe3-49ec-bd6b-95ee02df4d8a/
I had two sceme files and i just schould use one for both forms. So i had to use the same data source. That was all. Thank you for the hint.
Look in your ULS logs for the error message. It will be listed there 100%. The category is "Forms Services" - the logs are located under the 12 hive in LOGS\
