Data Table Merge Action Adds a Blank Row

We are downloading a report from SAP where the data set is so large it has to be broken up into 3-4 reports. We are fetching the report in a loop where we put the data into a temp data table, then merge it into the main data table.What we are finding is that on the first merge a blank row is added to the main data table at the end of the data set. Subsequent merges do not add more blank rows but push the blank row to the bottom. Our assumption is that the subsequent merges are happening at the correct position as there are no blanks rows in the middle.We are curious if this is by design or if this is a bug? We are having difficulty looping this data table since the last row contains no data and we are having to find blank rows, delete them etc. before working with the data.

AARI Form Show Hide Fields

Hi Experts,I am working on building a dynamic AARI form. I need to display up to 5 tables on the form, but I only want to show a table if it contains data. If a table has no data, it should be hidden.How can this be achieved?Additionally, is it possible to have dynamic table columns in an AARI form? Do I need to specify the column names for each table?

Formatting a number when using command "Database: Read from database using SQL statement..." when using Excel as database

Does anyone know how to format a number with commas/decimal when using command "Database: Read from database using SQL statement..." when using Excel as the database? Purpose:I’m connecting to an Excel spreadsheet as a database, looping through each row and saving the data into variables that will be used to populate a contract. Problem:I’m having a hard time formatting the Annual Salary field from my Excel file into my $vAnnualSalary$ variable.  This is my SELECT statement: SELECT [Employee First Name], [Employee Last Name], [[Annual Salary] from [Sheet1$$]  Though the Annual Salary field is formatted correctly on the Excel spreadsheet (numerical formatting with commas and decimals, no currency symbol), the value that is saved to my $vAnnualSalary$ variable (after the SQL command is executed) doesn’t contain any formatting (which I guess is expected with SQL). Does anyone know how I can apply numerical formatting to the Annual Salary so that it contains commas and a decimal? Ex: Excel

Cannot connect to new server with RDP

I am having an issue getting our third server to work with RDP. We have two servers with another service but we are moving to Azure and have one server setup with them. The RDP works with the old two servers, but I cannot get it to work with the Az one. I have the IP’s I found here whitelisted. Control Room IP addresses for external integrations (automationanywhere.com) No one else is logged in and only one other person has access to the server via an admin account.If I open an RDP session on my local computer, I can then schedule a bot and it can use that RPD session to run. If I use the “regular” auto log-in it also works. The error only happens when I try to run an unattended bot and AA needs to establish the RDP.Error:java.lang.RuntimeException: {"message":"Error creating RDP session.","details":"This may be due to multiple reasons. To continue, please\n\n1. Please check the number of max session count is configured for this machine\n2. Please find out if no one else has RDP on the

In Progress activity is acumulating

A scheduled process runs every 3 minutes. After some time, the in-progress activities accumulate in the control room. We manually move the pending in-progress activities. Is there an option to remove them without manual intervention, or is there an option to prevent the scheduler from running if the bot is active?
