Hello,

Microsoft standard reports usually have IDs below 50,000

If IDs 50000 and above are typically used for custom reports (per Microsoft development guidelines)

Hello,

To identify if financial reports in Business Central are standard or customized, check their Report IDs- standard reports usually have IDs below 50000, while customized ones are often above 50000. You can also review the Report Layouts page to see if the layout is default (standard) or custom (uploaded/modified).

Additionally, checking the report objects in the AL development environment or Object Designer helps determine if they belong to the base application or are part of a custom extension.

Hope this answer will help you!

Regards,
Mansi Soni

Hi,

Standard reports in Business Central have predefined Report IDs and Names. You can compare the report's ID with the list of standard reports in Microsoft's documentation. Microsoft define the objects id's for customization.

50000 - 99999 → Custom objects

Additionally, also you can check in report layout selections. If a report is listed here with a standard ID, it is likely a built-in report, while customized reports may have RDLC or Word layouts.
