    Re: General

    Not "broken down" in detail seems to be the best phrase grammatically.

    That's wrong. There's no such thing as that statement. You have mixed past tense in with future tense.

    naa lol it should be broken down, but you should re phrase like

    "once the report was broken down, it was evident that there was not enough detail"
