Hi kweevuss,
It looks like you are trying to use a Orion/NPM report in NCM report writer. That's not going to work.
NCM is primarily a configuration management tool.
The report you need (and that the above query may satisfy) is for NPM or Orion Platform (Core).
Generally, if you take the above query and use it with the wer reports, it should work.
Regards,
Jiri
