Report Columns

A report must contain one or more columns to show the data in the report output. You can add any of the fields in a report's dataset to the report as a column. The Add fields from datasets panel on the left side of the report designer shows a list of the entities, or groups of related fields, that are in the report's dataset.

Note: The fields shown in the report designer respect your access permissions. You don’t see fields in the list if you don’t have access to view the data that they contain.

Click the entity to expand it and view the fields it contains:
