Extender - how to show a calculated field in Report Builder?

Posted on by 485

I am using Dynamics GP 2010 Extender.

I have created extender Detail Forms, which includes Item Number (Lookup) from GP and then in next column I have add another Field Item Description which is actually a Calculated Field (Long String) <Item Number - Item Description> . Now when I have created a web report through SQL SERVER REPORT BUILDER 3.0, I am able to show Item Number but unable to show Item Description on the report. How to call it?

Item description is also not available in View (Extender) as it is directly associated with item number. How can I do some work around to show/print these item descriptions on the REPORT?

    Though it's a calculated field on the Extender window, I believe it's not stored anywhere. It's just to show the description to the user at that moment.

    Since you already have the item number, my suggestion would be to link that item number with IV00101 (Item Master) table, get the ITEMDESC field value and display it on your report.
