Hi! Sometimes in a report when I try to preview it, I’ll just get a blank data or a blank page, and other reports I’ll get data. Sometimes when I make a new report, my sub reports will show up, and sometimes they wont.
The only consistent thing is that expressions mess up, but text still displays
help!

Same thing with the subreports, some can get report data transferred to it, but some require a parameter entered on the main report to get passed to the subreport. Typically when working with subreports I will add the subreport as a separate report to the site and test it individually, then once I know it’s working as expected and the correct data is shown I’ll incorporate it into the main report and verify it’s working. If it isn’t then usually this means something is off with the connection or something is not being fed to the subreport correctly, but I know that the subreport itself is ok.
Hope this helps but if not, please provide some specific examples

I found out that it was two parts tripping me up.
So your advice definitely helped! Thanks
