Output .xlsx file is constantly corrupted

Hi All,

 

I have a workflow that outputs 4 sheets into the same excel file. 

The workflow runs successfully, and outputs the file containing the 4 sheets.

When I open the file I get error: 'we found a problem with some of the content, do you want us to try recover'

I open the file, and I have the 4 original sheets, plus the recovered sheet (always the same sheet)

 

I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this before? 

Each sheet has basic formulas to calculate % changes etc, nothing crazy. 

 

I created a new excel file and pointed the output to that but the issue is the same.

 

 

Thanks!

When I've received this message in the past, it's been a couple of different things.  My file path or tab names are too long or there's a formula/filter in excel that Alteryx is trying to overwrite.  I've actually started using the table tool in Alteryx to get achieve the formatting I'm trying to accomplish, which has limited the amount of times I've received that message.
