  • Hi Anonymous ,

     

    Data is saved in the desktop because Dynamics 365 BC uses the import mode. Therefore, you could only refresh it by clicking the refresh button.

    However,there is an approach doing the refresh with window capturing.

    But it doesn't solve your problems directly.
