Ideagen Internal Audit (Aura): Error "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" on Audits screen where a checked out Audit is listed
This error can appear as a result of a temporary problem with the main service, where the service creates a record for checkout but does not include the required user ID information and timestamp.
To confirm whether this is the problem, run the 'CheckDataIntegrity' procedure in the database:
EXEC CheckDataIntegrity;
If CheckDataIntegrity shows results where Mid contains OfflineCheckOut then it will be necessary for Ideagen Support to create a custom fix script, e.g.
Root cause and further investigation
This issue can appear as a result of a temporary problem with the main service.
The issue is cleared after a restart of the service’s application pool, but there may be additional issues that need investigating – more information here: Ideagen Internal Audit (Aura): Logged error "Could not fetch business rules because query of type Behavior could not be executed"
