Troubleshooting

  • In case data could not be retrieved from AdaptiveWork on publishing the slides (due to a missing field for example), the PowerPoint will be published and instead of the data, #N/A will appear.
  • In case the Roadmap could not be retrieved from AdaptiveWork on publishing the slide, an image with Unable to retrieve will appear instead of the actual roadmap.
