• When the SortController is invoked for the Subreport and for a Group Sort belonging to a Subreport, it checks not the Subreport but the Main report
• Since the Group does not exist in the Main report, the exception is thrown
• When the identical Summary Field exitsts in the main report, the error is not thrown
