What do you mean by a report? A formatted PDF file? If so, you would typically need to combine a series of tools to do that for you, such as combining Make with Documint.

p.s. These tools can be challenging to use if you’ve never used them before, so if your company has a budget for your project and you’d like to hire an expert Airtable consultant to help you create this, please feel free to contact me through my website: Airtable consulting — ScottWorld

By report I mean just being able to pull data for certain month for providers.

Hmm, is the "Date Requested" field a Date field in the other table?

If so, I'd create a formula field in the table that contained that "Date Requsted" field and convert that into the format MONTH YEAR (e.g. Apr 2023) with `DATETIME_FORMAT()`

After that, you could use a lookup field like you have now and use view filters for it and you could filter by "March 2023", which would give you all the records that are linked to a file that was requested in March 2023

Yes it is linked and it still groups the dates together. I need it to be able to read each date separate.

Could you provide an example of what you'd like to see exactly?
