Subject : OmniScan formula comment stops dynamic list build
Posted : 3/22/2017 4:36 PM

Barry,
In this thread,

Tom Helget posted an OmniScan formula. This formula works fine for the daily scan. But I tried using it to "Run current scan dynamically" and got no results. The scan popup appeared, but the progress bar never appeared or advanced. After 30 seconds, the ToDo box reappeared.

I started making changes to Tom's formula to debug the problem, and found that the comment he had inserted in the formula was responsible for the failure to build the dynamic list. I removed the comment, and the "Run current scan dynamically" completed successfully, and produced a dynamic scan list.

Why does the scan for "today" work okay, but "Run current scan dynamically" fail?

Here's the original formula including the comment:
