Sure thing. Where it says Create New Discrepancy in the embedded report is the problem. If I look at that report in the NVG app that field is a Formula URL field which displays as a button and works correctly. Once I embed it, it no longer works.

Are you trying to push a button while in Grid Edit Mode?  Is that embedded report in the screen shot in Grid Edit Mode.  If so then you cannot have a button in Grid Edit mode.

The best you could do is to have a similar report not in Grid edit mode on the form where the user can push a button there.  So have similar report twice on the same form, one goes into Grid Edit mode and one does not.  In View mode only one would show.
