=Inner and Outer Joins=
There are two types of joins supported in [[SmartSimple]] – inner joins and outer joins.
This is the most common type of join used, and is the default when you [[Adding a Table to a Report|add tables to a report]].
When you join the organization and contact table with an inner join, the report will find the matching record(s) from the contact table related to each organization. If no match is found, the record from the company will not be included in the report results. If multiple results are found in the contact table, the company information will be repeated.

!|Outer Join
||
The '''outer join''' is very different from an inner join. Instead of limiting results to those from both tables, it limits results to those in the "left" organization table.
This means that if there are no records in the organization table, a row in the report will still be returned for that company, but with NULL values for each column from contact.
Only use the outer join if you would still like all results (regardless of matching records with the other table) to show up.
