Hi all ,

I m getting this exception while i run my batch in server ,but when i run the same batch in client it runs smoothly,

can anyone can suggest any solution,

You have a bug in code (assigning incompatible types) that X++ allows, but the CIL runtime doesn’t allow. Unfortunately you can’t trust X++ type control, as I demonstrated in (In)valid conversion.

Hi Martin,

Thank you for your guidance, as you said it was my code bug in obj casting ,purchFormLetter_PurchOrder class called by PurchFormLetter_PackingSlip object.

but i feels strange, why these things are ignored while running in client !!!

thank you

X++ and CIL are two different languages running in two completely different runtime environments.
