Article summary

When exporting out a fund statement the error, "Statement Data File Name is Invalid". This error occurs for clients on Azure Cloud who are still using the local N drive for their export files rather than the shared S drive on Azure Cloud. The local mapped N drive is a remnant from when FIMS was self-hosted on the client's own server. When client's move to Azure Cloud typically the S drive is used going forward.

This can also occur if a network drive is being used that can no longer be used in Azure Cloud. In Azure Cloud, you can only use the local C drive or the S drive.

Answer:
If you are hosted on Azure Cloud now but were previously self-hosted and still use your local N mapped drive for your exports, the issue is caused by Azure Cloud not being able to see the mapped N drive. You will need to change your export to use either the Azure Cloud S drive or a locally attached drive. We recommend using the S drive.
