That doesn't sound like a cloud issue, more like a bad program or bad vendor issue.
My customer has an on-prem system which does pretty much the same, generate wrong reports that don't get fixed.
Basically, the reason I'm there is because other vendors don't do their job or do it poorly.
We're talking about big vendors that cost €150,000.00 a year on support contracts alone and an additional €130 an hour if they ever do any work for you (despite the support contract).
Meanwhile, my software is running fully in the cloud and they get exactly what they want.
I fix most issues within a few days (and often the same day).

I won a Fleabay auction for £40 less than I was prepared to pay (second hand table saw); I've fixed my MS PC game controller so my GTA-V helicopter doesn't go right all the damn time (just dirt on one side of the analog stick jamming it from recentering but I had to take it apart to clean); one of my routers will be suitable for conversion to a table router; the sun is shining merrily; and I've got chicken marinating for supper tonight with a salad.
Nothing to do with computers at all, of course - but I'll take victories where I can get 'em!
Nice when a Saturday goes well ...

How do routers have nothing to do with computers. And why would you want to put one on a tabletop???

O-gee did I go too far?

Can heartless home work defeat this game (5,5)
Can
heartless home work = dy ( diy )
defeat = crush
game = Candy Crush
I'm amazed nobody solved this

I don't think any of us figured "home work" was "DIY" - I certainly didn't!

Do you think it was a fair clue ? I don't like it when there are no replies.

I'm not convinced Candy Crush is a game, I suspect it's just something that happens between adverts like most mobile games seem to be - but other than that, yes: I'd say it was fair.
Just nobody got it ...

I think it was fair, but not by your standards. The this was filler, the same as the that in this one[^]. So "defeat this game" led me to think that it probably referred to the CCC itself, and so the second word in the solution could be solve, with Can as the definition. But the solution isn't hard if one thinks of DIY for home work, which I never did.

So home work was a fair clue for DIY ?

Sure. I think I've seen it before but forgot. I thought maybe chore, but it was hard to remove letters from its centre.

Yesterday, I had a phone call to say "my computer isn't working"
She had been trying for days, but nothing was happening. So she rang, and told me about it. She turns the computer on while I'm "there" and ... it all works fine. No problemo.
Programming God. I did say.
Today, I go to vacuum seal some Lemon slices for the freezer - ice lemon makes a nice summer drink cooler, especially with Elderflower Tonic Water - and ... the vacuum gauge starts working for the first time in a year or more, without me even opening up the Chamber Vac to see what the problem is.
Programming God. Machine fix themselves in my (even virtual) presence.

Many a times, where I've faced a similar situation and couldn't find a solution, my excuse has been "this is a hardware problem, I'm a software guy".
