Web Client Wednesday - You receive ArgumentNull_Generic Exception When Clicking an Option on the Navigation Bar

The Dynamics GP Blogster, aka Mariano Gomez, says the folks at his company, IntellPartners, eat their own dog food.

And that means that on January 1, 2014, the company completed its internal rollout of Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 and the web client on Windows Azure for its US headquarters along with its UK and Ireland subsidiaries.

Gomez says everything was going well until very recently when he began receiving a Silverlight exception each time he attempted to access the Sales option on the Navigation Bar:

"As a result, I fired up the Web Management Console and activated the traces for the session to determine what the issue could be. The traces showed nothing specific. After exhausting all options, I contacted my good friend Jason Lech, Escalation Engineer over at Microsoft, who indicated seeing this issue once. Jason had me verify the content of the Navigation Pane Options window, looking for duplicate entries.

"Unfortunately, this visual inspection yielded no results."
