Eric,

The ability to use and display User Defined Tables (UDT) using the XL Reporter is not currently available as of SAP Business One 2005A SP01.

Please see the attached SAP Note from SAP PartnerEdge that will give you information on displaying User Defined Fields (UDF) in XLR.

...go to "Get Support" in the menu

...and search for SAP Note no. <b>898184</b>

HTH,

Hi Eric,

For some reason the direct link to the Note seems not to work. I hope you'll get along with the instructions how to search the Note though.
