Budget Writeback - "No data to process" message after upgrading to Velixo NX

Created by Damien Zwillinger, Modified on Mon, 31 Mar at 3:15 AM by Damien Zwillinger

Symptoms

You get a "No data to process" message in the Status pane after upgrading to Velixo NX and clicking the Perform Writeback button, using a report built in Velixo Classic.

Explanation

Older versions of Velixo Classic did not require using the WRITEBACKBUDGET function, and Budget Writeback sheets did not include a Writeback Status column with the function. Newer Velixo Classic versions (v6+) were backward compatible and supported those olders sheets, but Velixo NX requires the use of the WRITEBACKBUDGET function.

Resolution

You may easily resolve this issue in Velixo NX, by either:

(Preferred) Creating a new Budget Writeback sheet from the New Sheet button, and copying your values into this new sheet, OR
Adding the WRITEBACKBUDGET function into your older Budget sheet (copying the formula from a new Budget Writeback sheet)
