Why is "columns to display" not showing all of the column options in my sheets?

I am trying to create a report that shows me certain columns from all of my sheets. All 19 sheets in my report have the same columns in them, but when I choose "columns to display" it only shows me 4 options and doesn't show, "Completed" "Issue" "Description" etc. like it does if I click on the individual sheets (all sheets are set up the exact same with the same column headings).

This is what all of the sheets columns look like. They all look the exact same.

Why don't these columns show as items I can add in my sheet to display?

All of the primary columns in each of my sheets are the exact same and labeled "issue".

Copied Smarsheet as new, now Conditional Formatting will not work at all
I copied a Smartsheet and changed some of the column headers. I deleted all the Conditional Formatting because it no longer applied. Then when I set up new Conditional Formatting, very simple - if this cell says YES, make the row green - it will not work at all.
Rolling-up information from sheet and reports. Unable to group information.
I am creating a report that pulls data from sheets and one other report. The information rolls up fine from both the sheets and report but it does not allow me to group the information from the report. For example, I want to group by program and then sub-group by sub-project. I keep getting a "Blank" for the group and the…
