Hello,

I added a few txt fields to a table and added these to a page and they are visible. Maybe you can share a small code sample that can be imported in a standard company / standard database.

Thanks.

If its a Table Field it should come, variables won't come.

Hi,

Since these are custom fields, they won’t automatically show up in filters or the "Choose Columns" option. To make them available:

1. Make sure the fields are included in the dataset by setting IncludeInDataSet = true; in AL code.

2. Update the Page’s SourceTable View to allow filtering on these fields.

3. Add them to the "Visible Columns" option using the AddColumns() method in AL.

Once done, recompile and publish the extension, and the fields should appear as expected.

Hope this solution might help you to solve your query!
