Duplicates in custom report
Just creating a simple report to show me all the tapes that allocated in the last 7 days.
Created a custom report
1. Name = Tape Reporting
2. Field Selection - Media Cartridge Label and Device Name
3. Set filters - Media Type Name = 'LTO' AND Date Allocated IN LAST 7 DAYS
4. No Grouping
5. Sort by Media Cartridge Label
No when I click on Preview it is perfect:
Note that this is returning only 7 rows. The preview is limited to 10 rows, but I there not that many fitting the filter. The preview is correct. Now when I run the actual report I get duplicate rows:
I get 14 pages of duplicate rows showing different devices.
Why is the report not matching the preview?
Thanks for any help.
