I imagine you have a scripted data source on the report labeled `Summary Report` ?

The error occurs because you're trying to compare an `Integer` with a `String`. To fix it, ensure that both values being compared are of the same type. You can either convert the `String` to an `Integer` or the `Integer` to a `String`, depending on the context of your report.

@Hema_T, the issue is _most likely_ with incompatible column types, but it's hard to say exactly where that's being caused without a closer look at the report in question. If you don't know which report, take a look at the MDC keys by looking at the 🔍 icon on the right hand side of the logging view, which should help provide some context. The full stacktrace of the error (clicking the ➕) should also help identify _where_ in the report this is happening.

If you're not able to share more details of your report, or you want more efficient help, I'd recommend contacting our support department officially.

The above post was flagged and feels suspiciously like LLM output to me, but is tangentially related enough to the topic at hand I approved it. @Neelam_Jyoti if you're a real person, apologies. If you're a robot, beep boop.
