Edit Field Caption
This section describes how you can change the field caption for a field.
To change a caption for a field, proceed as follows:
- Open the search function from the role center (ALT+Q).
- Search for Report Setups and click on the corresponding search result.
- The Report Setups page is displayed.
- Select the corresponding report in the list and click on the value under the ID column in the report line.
- The report card is displayed.
- Under the Fields tab, select the layout area in which the field for which you want to change a caption is located. In this example, the caption for a field is changed. This field is printed in the Top Right (2) layout area.
- On the Report Detup page under the Fields tab, click in the Caption column in the corresponding line for the field whose caption you want to change. In our example, we will change the caption for the field Sell-to Customer No..
- Change the value in the Caption field to the field label you require (e.g. Customer No.).
You have changed the caption of the field. You can also use this description to change the caption of the report (here: Sales Order - 101002). The corresponding layout area for this is Top (3).
In addition to changing the field caption, you can also define that field captions are not displayed/printed, but only the field values. For more information on how to hide the field caption, see the section Hide Field Caption.
Please note that the field caption may also need to be adapted for other languages. Further information on this can be found in the section Add Translation for Field Caption.
