Sage Evolution "Error Initialising Report Data" when running Accounts Payable Age Analysis

The above error may be encountered when a user tries running the Accounts Payable Age Analysis report in Sage Pastel Evolution.

The first probable cause of this error may be that a custom layout is being used. Corruption in the custom layout may throw this error.

If a custom layout is being used, you may try previewing the report using a standard layout to see if the error still pops up. If it doesn't, then you can be sure that the error is from the custom layout. You may then review the design and code of the custom layout to isolate the cause of the error.

In the unlikely event that the error still pops up, you may remedy this by creating a new evolution common database and linking it to the company. Any customizations may then be redone.
