Sometimes you might encounter an intermittent error. It may also appear as odd functionality that your colleagues cannot replicate, or you yourself only see on one computer, or even one browser and not another on the same computer. In these instances, it is likely an issue with the browser cache and cookies. It is advisable in these cases to clear your browser cache and cookies. Once you have done that, close and reopen the browser and start a new session to see if the functionality has resolved. If not, please do not hesitate to contact our support teams.
