The ORA-00904 error is saying that you have specified an invalid identifier. This identifier could be the view name, or could be as simple as a syntax error. I would venture to say that the problem is not with the view. If the view works with multiple reports, then the view will work for all reports. It is the last report that is not calling the view correctly.
