Generate Rows Tool Not Working when Running on AMP Engine

[OneandOnly13]

Hey everyone, I was wondering if anyone else is having issue with getting the Generate Rows tool to work when running it on the AMP engine? I have it as part of TS modeling workflow to add in actual dates vs. periods and it generates the rows fine when running without the AMP engine but it refuse to output any data when running on the AMP Engine. It doesn't give an error that it didn't work. It just won't output any data. Is this a bug or known issue?

Thanks!

Thank you for using the AMP Engine and for providing feedback. 

I encourage you to continue to report any use case issues that you find with running workflows with AMP Engine enabled. We worked hard to identify differences from the original Engine as well as provide guidance on how to better optimize workflows to run with AMP. 

Could you please share what version of Designer you are running? 

We fixed an issue with Generate Rows not working when running on AMP with the 2021.1 Release version. 

I also want to share some helpful links to available documentation about AMP Engine:

Thanks Tonya! We're still on v. 2020.4.6.36807 so good to know that a future release should fix this. I'm not sure when our technology team will implement something like this so are there any plans to add this fix to prior versions as well that have access to run AMP?
