eg.Requester,orderer fields of purchTable to a ssrs report.

    The fields you're talking about are really numbers (Int64); they contain record ID from a different table (namely HcmWorker). You can use joins to fetch data from related tables. For example, if you want to show the orderer's name in the report, join PurchTable with HcmWorker over the orderer field, and HcmWorker with DirPartyTable. Then use DirPartyTable.Name field in the report.

    Thank you Vahix but I need a way to display these int64 fields (reference fields ) as string as they are displayed in the forms.
