Finding a report I've edited and saved

I'm running Sage Accounts Essentials. In other versions, I've had access to a Monthly P&L report that I believe is not made available to Essentials, only Professional etc. However, I've got the monthly report file and when I open it from via File Explorer, it pulls the data without any issue. I've saved it to "My Nominal Reports" but it doesn't show up when I try to access directly via Sage Reports, only through File Explorer. Is there a way to make it visible from Sage? I'm definitely saving to the correct directory as I saved a version of an "allowed" report into My Nominal Reports and it is visible. Thanks.

There is a data bit in the file that says it is only for this version of Sage 50.

You could recreate the report in the report designer.

Maybe, I misunderstood.

Reports are stored in 2 places, in the data path and on your local PC.

Try fliping the switch on "use datapath for reports" and see if it appears
