Chad,

Thanks so much. Sorry I didnt have a chance to email you directly.

I will ask my fulfillment center to change their coding & spread the word internally.

I really appreciate the help!

...if this change is permanent.

This change is permanent - if the column is blank it shouldn't be included in the export. The latest update to Method included speed improvements here and as a result, empty data like the column you mentioned shouldn't be included in the export.

Please let me know, as I need to have my fulfillment center change the coding for receiving the files if this change is permanent.

I will review the export excel function with the team and see if any changes were made. Please email me directly and I'll follow up as soon as I hear back.

Recent change to "export grid" function?

Good morning,

Our company uses a screen with two custom grids to allow us to export invoice header & detail information for transmission to our fulfillment center.

Until around last friday, these exports would always have "column A" on the resultant excel sheet as a blank column. Exports now do not have a blank column for "A".

My question is, was there an update to Method that changed the way grids would export in this respect? There are a limited number of individuals here with access to make customization changes, and I know this screen has been considered completed for many months, so I thought it was worth asking if the change happened on the Method end.

Please let me know, as I need to have my fulfillment center change the coding for receiving the files if this change is permanent.

Thank you!
