Most likely the report has been created in a pbi desktop that is newer than the ocotober release for report server and using features that aren't available in the report server yet.

 

Make sure your contractor creates his/her reports in the correct pbi desktop.

We have created several reports in Power BI Desktop and have still loaded them up to the server.  I am not sure my contractor has dektop for the report server.  Many of the things we need to do aren't available on Desktop report server version.  Microsoft release for it on Prem isn't as ofter or as uptodate as other desktops.

    Well you can't use features in the new desktop client and upload them to an onpremise server as that only know features that are available in the october 2017 client.
