[SOLVED] How to turn off qualifier in MRE report

Hi,

We just recently switched to WebFOCUS 7.6.5. from 5.3.2.

We noticed that when users create MRE report using the Reporting Assistant tool, the code would refer to the field names with the qualified master name and the table name.

Is there anyway to turn off qualifier naming from the reporting server? We don't want qualifer names because occasionally we are required to switch table names from the master file behind the scene.

Thanks.

Steven

Steven,
Unfortunately there is no way to disable the use of fully qualified
field names in the Report Assistant.

The only option that you have in your case is to recreate the synonym
renaming the new master to the old name

In the server create synonym page when you select the check box
next to the master you want you can edit the Default synonym name
just by over typing it.

Then the qualified fieldnames will work.
