Hello!
I’m trying to edit a report, but when I clicked on the “Edit report” button instead of downloading, it just sends me to a screen called “report definitions”
Can I get some help? Really appreciate your answers, thanks

If it is navigation to report definitions then those are ARM Reports in Acumatica.

Hi.  I’ve gotten this once or twice and had to open Report Designer directly, click on File / Open from Server, put in the URL and credentials, then click on Load Reports List.  Find the report file, modify and publish.  

 

Or, you may need to install the appropriate Report Designer from the tools exe file, if you have done an upgrade recently.

Yes, I’m report editor user and I tried to open it up from the desktop app but I can’t find it on the list.
The screen is cst.gl.63xxxx Is  this an editable report?

Hi ​@AFAguilera 

Please follow these steps:

Step 1: Check if your User has "Report Designer" permission on Acumatica

 

Step 2: Try removing Report Designer from your computer and then reinstalling Report Designer. Note that the Report Designer version is the same as the Acumatica version.

 

Step 3: If you do as above and still get the error, please send a screenshot of the error.

 

Best Regards,

NNT

Hi ​@AFAguilera 

Looks like you are trying to Edit an ‘ARM’ report. ARM reports are not built using Reports designer and built using Analytical reports functionality. 

  • On reports built using Reports designer, the ‘Edit report’ gets you report copy in .rps format.
  • On ARM report, Edit report takes you to Report definition screen. 

Hope this clarifies.

Regards,
