Editing Standard Expense Accrual Report

[gricks1]

Hello -

I'm having trouble adding the Report ID field to the standard report "Expense Accrual." The joined query won't let me change the expression on the "Unsubmitted CC Trans" query to "Unassigned," as the tutorial suggests. I get an error message when I hit validate. I left it unchanged and the report ran but I know it's not including transactions with transaction date for the closing month because all the records that show up in my report has an assigned Report ID number.

Please help. I need to figure this out by tomorrow morning if possible but no later than EOD tomorrow (March 4, 2021). I appreciate any help I can get.

Thanks!

Geraldine

@gricks1 this is the best resource I can share to help you out. It is too much to type here on the Community.

Give this a watch and if you still have questions, let me know.

Thanks so much @KevinD that worked. It seems I don't have the correct permission to Edit the reports, I don't see that option in my menu. do you know what I need to add to my profile to gain this? 

Below is a screenshot of my options:

I tried adding the author roles, but it said it was in conflict with another one.

@nkhan-Euna Try removing the Cognos Consumer role, then add the Professional Author. If that doesn't work, then it might mean all the Professional Author roles are taken as I believe you only have 10 to assign.
