Vlookup Output doesn't appear in report

I have a sheet that references another sheet to complete the fields via vlookup. However, when a run a report on the sheet, the information populated from the vlookup appears blank? How do I get this information to display in my report?

I have a series of complex sheets that need to be tied together without me having to copy and paste data; I'd like the information to automatically be reported.


Thanks!

    Thanks! Aha, it was user error. The field names were the issue.

    I believe the problem is that your report does not have the same fields selected as your sheet. Example: your sheet has a Total Story Points but your report does not. And visa-versa.

    When you say things are appearing blank, they problem is that you did not select those columns in your report.
