Hi ,
I have created a new report which seems to be fine,
but I am unable to run it in Tessitura.
Throws me an error::
Retrieve argument 2 does not match expected type
Kindly suggest me what is the mistake...
Thank you.
Most likely the data type for the parameter is different from the report parameter window (Report Setup) to the Retrieval Arguments in the datawindow (Infomaker). You’ll see this error if you try to pass, for instance, a string parameter value to a number datatype.

We have checked that the Data Type for Parameter and Report Parameter are identical. However, we continue to receive the same error on the front end.
The stored procedure runs successfully on the sql server.
Another possibility -
If this is an Infomaker report based on a stored procedure, and the parameters on the stored procedure have changed since the report was originally built, you may have a mismatch between the parameters supplied and the ones that Infomaker is expecting.
Whenever you change the parameters on a report stored proc in any way, you need to manually refresh the link between the Infomaker report and the proc - IM doesn't pick up the changes automatically.
Usually you just need to go back to the report designer and re-select the proc, but we have had cases where the parameters weren't successfully re-linked until we had actually changed the proc that the report was based on to some other random proc, saved the report design, then opened it again and changed it back to the right proc.

Thank you for all the help .
Hi Ken,
I am new to design the reports in the Info Maker,
how can I manually refresh the link between the Infomaker report and the proc??
Now,I am just doing this
view->Column specification->right click select stored procedure ->change the name and the parameters of the stored procedure.
I basically chaged the ON ACCOUNT TRACKING REPORT...
I have added source channel ,and posting date to the report.
I have changed the parameters to @start date and @end date instead of @cut of data..........
Kindly let me know if I doing anything wrong....
I have tested the Stored Procedure in SQL Server Management Studio...
It worked fine.
Any help with this would be really appreciated ...
In the column specifications, make sure also that you are adjusting the datatypes of the parameters in the Arguments window to match the parameters in the Report Setup. These need to match the datatypes and also be in the same order. Some older standard reports utilize application code in between the parameter window and the report datawindow and the parameters aren’t always in the order (because they don’t have to be in the application necessarily).
Sorry if this is too basic, but this is just a quick mention in case the foundation of your report is off track:
Keep in mind that if you are making customizations of standard reports, you need to create local versions to modify in your system. Otherwise you may be running into issues where application code and objects are overriding your customizations. Have you created a new stored procedure from the standard stored procedure, so instead of RP_ON_ACCOUNT_TRACKING_REPORT create a copy LRP_ON_ACCOUNT_TRACKING_REPORT. Instead of d_on_acct_tracing_rpt, create ld_on_acct_tracking_rpt.
Hope that helps.

Hi Ryan Thank you for your concern.
I am doing the same ,but saving the report as ud_on_account_tracking_rpt.
Coming to the data window error,I have checked the arguments also.
I made sure they are in same order and have the same datatype.
any suggestion would be appreciated
