    Greetings,

    Are you referring to Business Insights Explorer views or something else?  BIE views can have existing fields from the table added to the view by adding them with Column Settings.  Not sure that is what you are asking though.

    Thanks,

    Yes i am referring to BIE -- The field is not available to pick in the column setting so i wanted to add it - can this be done

    If the column is not available in Column Settings from any of the associated data sources, then it requires a Development Partner modification to add it.  The exception is UDFs; which if they are added to a Data Source table for the view will be availabled in Column Settings.

    Thanks,

    Hey Kent,

    How's it going? Hopefully great. I'm sure this 4 year old post is still fresh in your mind. I wanted to tack on a quick follow up question. Since we are on the verge of the 2018 release, how about freeing up some code so we can add another table to these columns?

    Here's what a customer of mine wants to get. She wants to be able to add ACH info to the Vendor View. Seems like it shouldn't be that hard to add something like the AP_VendorElectronicPayment table to the AP_Vendor table. It's not too hard to do in Excel, just sayin'.

    Cheers
