Hi,
I keep getting this error message when checking my challenge on the "Create Reports with the Report Builder" unit even though I have double checked my work several times and even created a new playground.
Challenge not yet complete in Wise Impala Playground
We couldn’t find the State/Province field in the 'Columns' section.
Could I get some guidance on what else I can try?

That error means the checker is scanning your report's Columns list for a field it recognizes as 'State/Province' and not finding it there. A few things cause this even when the report looks right:
1. It has to be in Columns, not a Grouping or Filter. In the Lightning Report Builder, open the Outline tab and confirm State/Province is under Columns (the field list), not sitting only as a Group Rows / Group Columns or as a filter. If you grouped by it, also add it as a straight column.
2. Make sure it is the exact State/Province field. When you search the field list there can be look-alikes: Mailing State/Province, Billing State/Province, or a '(text)' variant if State and Country/Territory Picklists are enabled. Add the one that matches the unit's instructions exactly, if it just says 'State/Province', pick that plain field, not the Mailing/Billing versions.
3. Save the report after adding the column. If you add the field but run or navigate away without saving, the check reads the saved version, which will not have it yet.
So: Outline > Columns, drop in the exact State/Province field (not a group/filter, not a Mailing/Billing look-alike), Save, then re-run Check Challenge. Since you already rebuilt the playground, it is almost certainly the column-vs-grouping placement or the field variant rather than anything org-level.
If this helps, please mark it as the Best Answer so it helps the next person. Thanks :)
