Kinetic Report with direct SQL subreport - On Prem

I have an Aged Receivables report which originates from a copied data definition within Kinetic, a subreport was added to include some extra information based on the customer contact.
The subreport is a direct query to the SQL server and is called into the main report using CustID field, to get the rdl for the subreport into Kinetic i took both reports from SSRS and uploaded them against the report style.
I changed the path to the subreport to remove all except the report name, however, when I run the report the area for the subreport says ‘Error: the subreport could not be shown’

Is it still possible to use a direct SQL query subreport now the rdl’s are stored in Kinetic? I am not sure if this is what is causing the issue, any ideas?

Personally I’d avoid doing any direct SQL queries in SSRS. I’d add the needed data to the Report Data Definition (RDD) and rebuild the subreport.

As Randy said, I’d avoid that. Do a BAQ to get the data and dump it into your RDD.
