Date box missing in a report creation form

Suggested

Hi there,

In our company we are using Sage 300 premium (Version 2022). Users are connecting on Sage on a TS via Remote apps (RDP).
Users running Windows 11 25h2

One of our users is experiencing strange behavior that some of you may have already encountered. When she tries to generate a report,
the "cutoff" portion of the FROM - TO parameters only contains the FROM field. Consequently, an error message appears when she runs
the query since there is no limit date. Note that this problem only occurs in her session (her colleagues do not have this issue).





Do you have any idea what could be causing this?

Thank you in advance

    Since this works for other users, I would guess this issue is being caused by screen resolution or use on a second monitor.  Either way, I would suggest increasing the width of the vb form you are using.

    Right.  Check to be sure that the scale in Windows display settings is set to 100% on that workstation.  Some people like to set their display scale higher, and Sage does not play well with that.

    Thank you all for your replies.

    At first I also had a feeling it was a graphics rendering issue, so I disconnected the laptop from the docking station and the multiple monitors to have only a native display. I tested different scaling options in Windows, I even modified the RDP remoteapp file by including:

    disable dynamic resolution:i:1

    desktopwidth:i:1920

    desktopwidth:i:1080

    in order to force native resolution but without success. Also, comparing with another user, I realize that when opening the same report, the form opens correctly (with both fields) but in addition, it seems to open in a kind of Crystal Reports editor (see attached screenshot), whereas in the case of the affected user, only a standard Sage window opens.

    This might just be a configuration issue related to the Sage profile itself or some kind of file association? The person who usually manages Sage is on maternity leave, and she's the one who assigns rights to new users, while I, as the IT manager, only handle the Active Directory/RDP side.

    Yesterday I tried to open the .RPT report in order to give a try on your solution, but realise that the custom report edit tool (Info-Explorer) that we have don't have active licence even if we pay for it, so the consultant that sells us thoses licences including Sage will call me today to fix it. He should be able to shed some light on all this btw.

    I'll keep you updated.

    Thanks again.

    See if they are running the same report?  maybe same name but from different folder.  Sage has built in SAP report viewer now, so not sure how it could open in a different application?
