Field Descriptions in the WEBi or Universe

[former_member196240]

Hello,

Is there a way to get the field description in WEBi (BO 4.1)? Currently my universe is incorporated with SAP ECC tables like MARA,MARC etc from the SQL.

But the fields like MATNR,MMSTA does not come up with the description. The user is writing a WEBi report on top of this universe but having hard time in pulling the fields into report, because its coming up with technical name only not with descrption.

Any help would be great.

thanks,

Vinay

Hello Vinay,

That's how the universe behaves... It will always pull in the technical names instead of description of the table columns.. Because they are always unique.... You can change the Column names manually in the Universe to give it a more meaningful name.
