Report Painter - Account descriptions not showing

[Former Member]

Hi guys...I have created a balance sheet in report painter, using a library based on table FAGLFLEXT. this table does not have account descriptions in it, but only account number. The client wants to see the account description as well. Is there a way I include that in my report? Since we are using the new GL, i have used FAGLFLEXT. Please advise how I can accomplish this...can I use a view or a table join between FAGLFLEXT and SKA1?

please help

thanks

Dear Brain,

In the report painter, GRR2, select your report and go to

Formatting > Section layout

Select the lead column tab

Here in the Contents field, select "Key and description"

That would resolve the issue.

Hi Venkatesh, I tried this already but this will only work if the source table has the descriptions in it. Can you suggest something else maybe?

thanks
