@dylantheriaultMake sure you have the matching report designer version installed. You can find the ReportDesigner.exe file and check Details Tab under properties for the File Version

Or

Content of the report version has broken XML structure for some reason and it can't be loaded in Report Designer. If report is customized, try activate a different version and then open report through Report Designer.

How to confirm it is the right one?

My Acumatica instance is 2021 R1.

Report Designer: 17.205.0015

 

It appears maybe I am using a 2017 version when I should be using an updated 2021 version?

 

I also don’t have issues using report designer for other reports/saving to server etc… just this one.
