# Hiding a Report Chart That Shows an Error

A chart can sometimes, for whatever reason, show an error on the detail page instead of data. Since a chart with an error isn’t that useful, you have the option to hide it from viewers.

A chart can show an error on a page for one or more of these reasons.

- The viewer doesn’t have access to the field that’s used for filtering.
- The viewer doesn’t have access to the report folder.
- The report chart has been deleted from the report.
- The report definition has changed.
- The report itself is no longer available.
