When logging into the Sage 300 Webscreens, if I attempt to change the Session Date, I get a Warning message - "You can change the session date only if no windows are open".

When logging into the Sage 300 Webscreens, if I attempt to change the Session Date, I get a Warning message - "You can change the session date only if no windows are open". Therefore, I cannot change the Session Date.

How do I change the Session Date in Webscreens with this blocker?

    Unfortunately we had another high priority item that came but we will be back to this soon. I will keep you updated and we are reviewing the status of this issue bi-weekly.

    Hey, I have an update on this. This issue seems to be sporadic and is likely caused by an unexpected shutdown of the browser which leaves the local storage in an out-of-sync state.

    Therefore, for our upcoming Sage 300 2022.2 release in April we will remove the "open window" restriction and allow the session date to be changed regardless of the state of open windows. We will display a message, such as: "The new session date will not be used in screens that are currently open. To use the new session date in these screens, close the screens and then open them again."

    Additionally, we will be producing a KB article that describes how to access the local storage via the browser developer's tools to reset this flag. While this is not ideal from a customer perspective, a partner will be able to assist in this endeavor of resetting the "ALLSESSIONS_OpenScreenCount" flag in the local storage to 0 if it is not 0 and there are no open windows in the browser. 

    Finally, the session date may still be changed by the user by logging into the Sage 300 desktop, changing the session date, and then logging into the web screens.

    I hope this help!
