MAS 200 4.5 PU3 SQL
Hi,
We have an persistent problem with the lookups (ALE files). It would crash when I tried to:
(1) Set the lookup settings through User Look Wizard, specifically the S/O Entry Header and S/O Invoice Header
(2) Create a new customized lookup under a user
My reseller contacted Sage and Sage instructed us to either (1) restore from a good backup (2) Replace the lookup ALE files (sy1q01.soa ~ sy1q04.soa, sy1qdd.soa).
I picked choice (2) which was to setup a test server matching the PU level and 3rd party module level (we have the SWK StarShip Link 2.0 and ACSG Multi-bin modules installed). And then copy the ALE files from test server to production server.
Long story short, the production server still would crash on editing lookups or create new customized lookups for S/O Entry Header and S/O Invoice header. The test server has no issues.
The error we're geting is Error# 43: Format mask invalid.
My guess is mabye it's the data in the database that is causing the issue, because the test server has only the country codes and zip codes, no sales or accounting data. But I do not know where else to look for the problem.
I have some screenshots here. I'm working with my reseller on this too, but no real solution so far.
Please help. Thank you.
