I have the latest build of GP 2013 on my computer (12.00.1343). I used the Employees SmartList template as a starting point to add a new column to SmartList. The column I added was "Vacation Accrual Amount". In SmartList after that columns is added, the values show up in the list just fine within SmartList. However, when you export the list to Excel the values for this column are zero in Excel and don't show the values in SmartList. If I export this to Word, the values are there.
So this seems to be an issue with GP 2013 SmartList export to Excel. Is this a bug?
To re-recreate.
•In SmartList, expand the Payroll folder then expand the Employees folder.
•Click on the list with the Asterisk. Choose Columns and Add and add the column called Vacation Accrual Amount. If you don't have accrual information for any employees, you can add this using the Employee Maintenance/Vacation Sick Time Window. Then after I ran a pay run, I do get data for two employees in SmartList and it shows up in the list just fine.
•Export to Excel, the values in this column are 0.
•Export to Word, the values in this column are correct.
I am seeing this in a customer environment and can also re-create with Fabrikam.
If this is a bug, can someone tell me the work-around if any to this or any information about this bug and or scheduled fix?
Thank you,
Sheila
