Reporting bug: 1 invalid formula. Please fix before switching or saving.
When editing reports we'll sometimes break formulas.
In some cases, after fixing the formulas by:
- Replacing broken elements so none are highlighted as red, or
- Literally replacing every single formula
We are still prevented from saving with the message "1 invalid formula. Please fix before switching or saving."
This isn't a new idea but a request for the dev team to revisit the validation. It's pretty inconvenient to start over.
