Handling problems after saving

When the personalization is saved, validation and processing is done before the personalization becomes effective. Issues can arise during this process. These issues must be solved before you can save the personalization properly.

Errors are displayed in the Problems panel. For each problem, the message, the report layout and field, if any, are displayed. Double-click a problem to select that layout or field.

When the affected layout or field is modified, the icon of the problem becomes gray, to indicate that it may no longer be relevant. After saving, the problem may disappear.

Sometimes the Problems panel does not show an issue, or does not give enough context. In these cases, you can find more information by selecting Plain Output. If this check box is selected, the plain-text output of the report script generator (repgen) and the compiler (bic) is displayed. If there is no output, for example because an error occurred before the generator was started, this check box is not available.
