We are a Jetreport user in Navision 2015.
We have two developer licenses.
Everything works fine when we develop reports and save them in values mode for people with view licenses.
What I have found recently is that if the other developer uses my reports when I go into them afterwards they have remembered the file path and fail
GL(F$14,$E6,F$11,F$12,,$AG$9,,,,,F$10,,,"TRUE") becomes R:\Finance\Converted Sales SnapshotGL(F$14,$E6,F$11,F$12,,$AG$9,,,,,F$10,,,"TRUE")
Using Find R:\Finance\Converted Sales Snapshot and Replace (leave blank) fixes the problem and then the report returns expected values/works..
We have been advised by our supplier that we need to save all of our reportswith =values and in report mode and this will fix the problem, which it does.
The frustration is that when both of us are working on a large report it takes a lot of time for them to save and recalculate when you go out of design into report mode.
Inevitably you get the times when you think you are in design mode and in fact you are at report mode and all your changes are lost or the report was not saved in report mode and you have to find and replace all the formulas again.
These frustrations we seem to happen when you are working to a deadline and don’t have time to fix it.
There must be a better way of dealing with jet reports that are being shared by designers
I am interest to hear if other users in bigger sites have the same issue or if there is a work around
Thanks Terry in New Zealand

Jet Reports Historic Posts I'm sorry, I don't have a solution to your problem. But I feel I should add that if you are using the scheduler, I've found reports need to be saved in design mode for the parameters to update anyway, so saving everything in report mode shouldn't be the solution!
