Troubleshooting
Problem
User clicks 'Maintain - Rights - Reports'. The 'User Rights and Security Group Reports' selection box appears. User ticks/selects (checks) the option 'Menu Groups' (inside the Security Group Reports' sectuon). User clicks 'Preview' button. When the 'User Rights and Security Group Reports (Preview)' windows appears, user receives error message.
Symptom
The problem only affects some (very few) standard reports.
- In addition, it only affects some selections inside those standard reports.
Example
The problem is seen if the user ticks the option 'Menu Groups' inside 'User Rights and Security Group Reports':

- [HOWEVER, if you only tick 'User Groups' and 'Users' (in other words, you do not tick 'Menu Groups'), then the report will run successfully].
Below is the error seen (when you tick 'Menu Groups'):
