Hi everybody,

i've just started creating my first reports in nav 2015 and run into a problem.

Here a simple Design of a report to show the problem: 
Data Type       Data Source     Name        Include Caption     Paramter in RDLC Layout
                                                                Name            Value
DataItem        Customer        <Customer>
  Column          Name            Name      true                Name_Caption    Name
  Column          Item."No."      Item_No   true                Item_No_Caption Item_No


When i set the Include Caption at a field that is not included in the DataItem, instead of the Caption, the Name of the Data Source is printed. Am i missing something? Or do i have to use Labels for this cases? :roll:

    Hey AAA,

    Yeah sadly it behaves like this, haven't found a way around it yet :(
    I'd usually just use Text Constants (because of ML Functionality) and add them to the Dataset manually in this case.

    Thank you Wisa for confirming this.

    Performance wise I always use labels for the captions unless the caption is "calculated". That prevents an additional column in your dataset.
