HI pdirect, This has already been posted HERE. We are currently aware of this issue once, once it is resolved we will update you. -Michael

Our daily reports are returning a 404 page when we click on the report title.  This type of problem is the most confusing and frustrating about Method support.  I'm confused as to whether or not I should open a forum case (when you don't know who I am) or if I should contact my Method rep since it's an obvious site error. And ...

Paul, That makes total sense and I apoligize for assuming that the Filter Safeguard was the culprit.  I will see if the customer wants me to use the conditional statement method instead since its a more reliable way to pull the data.

The name of my report is "CashBalance" with no special characters.  I even renamed it from "Cash ...

Generate Report - no filter, just show all records. 3. End Conditional Statement 4. Start Condition Statement - if the dropdown is NOT empty then... 5. Generate Report - ...

First I "Retrieve Value From Screen" and assign it a Name.  Then in the generate report action: 1) Call the report (CallReport is the name of the report) 2) Filter Report; Table in Report is Correct (CallReport).  Fields in Table is "Facility". Condition Statement is "Equal to". From "action ...
