Posted on by Ar0x 225

Hi we a quit new to BC. We want to modify the Report 208. I have managed to do the most things. But I can't find the VAT of the debitor. Is there a other report, which I could use instead or how can I add this field to the dataset? We are using BC on premise. 

I have the same question (0)

    You have to create a copy of the report, rename it, add your field in the dataset and then in the layout(s).

    It does not exists in the current supported version the concept of DatasetExtension, unfortunately.

    There is a good example how to do this in the reporting chapter in the following book

    As Duilio explains, you can't add fields in the datset of an existing report. So indeed you have to create a new report instead, which can start as a copy of the original.

    Here an example of how you can do that:
