    Hi,

    Support for trend analysis in Salesforce is fairly limited.

    User Interface of Salesforce reports and dashboards is fixed. Salesforce does not support pixel perfect report.

    Salesforce reports do not support importing data from other sources When displaying objects and their children, Salesforce does not support reporting on objects that do not have any children.

    If an object has two different related lists, then Salesforce reporting does not support displaying both these related lists together.

    Thanks

    Hi

    The following are some noteworthy points about reports:

    You can create a dashboard only from the matrix and summary reports.
    A maximum of 2,000 rows will be displayed in a report. To view all the rows, export the report to Excel, or use the printable view for tabular and summary reports. For joined reports, the export option is not available, and the printable view displays a maximum of 20,000 rows.
    In the report builder, up to 20 rows will be displayed for summary and matrix reports and up to 50 rows for will be displayed in the tabular report.
    You can use five formulas per report.
    You can use up to 20 field filters in a report.
    To set the maximum number of records to display in a tabular report, click on Add and select Row Limit in a report builder.
    By default, reports time out after 10 minutes. You can contact Salesforce.com support to extend the time-out limit to 20 minutes for tabular, summary, and matrix reports, but no extension is available for joined reports. It will continue to time out after 10 minutes.
    Reports will show only the first 254 characters in a rich-text area or a long-text area.

     

    Thanks

    hi,

    Too much training required

    Salesforce reports do not support importing data from other sources When displaying objects and their children, Salesforce does not support reporting on objects that do not have any children.

    To set the maximum number of records to display in a tabular report, click on Add and select Row Limit in a report builder.

    Difficult cross-object reporting.

    thanks
