Identified — We can now confirm that the problem that impacted Business Objects (WEBI) was caused by a bug in the latest version of chromium based browsers (both Edge and Chrome are built on the same foundation.) Google have already released a fix for Chrome which we have tested and can confirm works. Restarting your PC / Laptop should update Chrome, and you will be able to use it again to run reports if you prefer. We we would expect Microsoft to release a similar update for Edge from the beginning of next week.

Identified — We believe now that the issue may be linked to the latest versions of Chrome and Edge browsers. Firefox doesn't seem to be affected however and WEBI seems to be working fine for those using Firefox. If possible could you try using Firefox for the timebeing to access WEBI. Our team will be looking at the underlying issue, but the resolution may take time

Investigating — We are continuing to investigate the cause, in the meantime please use Firefox web browser to access and not Edge or Chrome.
