Ha - I don't even know what that means.
Allow me to correct my prior post.
Changing the setting to include unique records didn't cause this problem. The problem is caused when I linked a new table and inserted a field that only applies to terminated employees.
The result is that the report now only runs for terminated employees. I want the report to run for all employees but only show the inserted field when displaying a terminated employee.

assuming you have no select statement then it is likely to do with a join. sounds oike you store termination data in a separate table from the employee table

The original report automatically picked up active & terminated employees and included the following 2 tables: 1. ROTPersonnelStatusTableB
2. ROTPersonnelStatusTable
I added a link to a table called "Closing_Statement"
Then I wrote a custom formula as follows:
If isnull ({Closing_Statement.Vest Cancel Date}) then {ROTPersonnelStatusTableB.Expiration Date} else {Closing_Statement.Vest Cancel Date}
If instead of using this formula I simply insert {ROTPersonnelStatusTableB.Expiration Date}, the report includes both active and terminated people. However, when I insert the custom formula above, it only pulls terminated people.
I'd like to use my custom formula above and have it show both active & terminated people.

Right outer join and full outer join work for some people but not others.
For example, all terminated people have a vest cancel date. The report now displays both active & terminated people but it does not show the vest cancel date for all terminated people.
