Diagnosis

You have changed the period in the detail area without making changes in an input field. If you have shortened the period (that is, if you have entered a later start date or earlier end date), no change will be made to the data displayed. In this way, unnecessary data records are avoided.

When the period is next calculated, the old data is referenced, that is, the old period is recreated.

If you, on the other hand, extend a period, all data within the validity of the period is also extended. When the period is recalculated, the changes are made.

If you change periods and input fields at the same time, data is always changed.

System Response

Procedure

Change or delete at least one input field if you are shortening periods.
