Please note the following Sage 200 Ideas Portal Guidelines apply to the use of this portal.
By defaulting the output mode to preview rather than spool, new users are provided with immediate on-screen feedback when running reports. Previously, reports sent directly to the spool could give the impression that nothing had happened, leading to confusion and unnecessary support queries. Displaying the preview ensures users can clearly see that the report has executed successfully and understand what to expect from the output, improving overall usability and reducing uncertainty.
