Business Portal missing spaces on Requisition Purchase screen.
When I updated a client from Business Portal for GP 2010 to GP 2013, a strange side-effect showed up. Users that transferred requisitions to PO's in the Purchasing Center > Requisitions page were seeing columns with no spacing between them. This made it difficult to view the information on the screen.
What we found after much trouble-shooting, testing and no help from a charged Microsoft incident, was that the new GP 2013 portal used the old GP 2010 portal ActiveX control. We were able to prove this because every computer that had run the GP 2010 portal showed the issue, whereas any new workstations that had never run the GP 2010 portal showed with proper spacing.
The problem is resolved by replacing the MBFWebBehaviors.dll file on the local workstation with the GP 2013 version. A Windows search can locate the local dll file, in the test case I saw it was in the Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics\Business Portal folder on the old workstation. In GP 2013 it was in the Windows\Downloaded Program Files folder.
I hope that saves someone a bunch of time somewhere.
