Is there a way to change the name of the column in Report?

[Bharath K B3]

I have created a scheduled report and there are two columns with the same name. Is there a way to change the column name of the report??

You can't change column name in a table. However you can do it for Database view.

Are you generating report on a database view? if not create a database view and add the table you are looking for in the view tables related list.

Remember the variable prefix of the table you have added

Now you can create a Language File for that column with following details

Goto System Definition > Language File

Create New

In Table give your table name

Label - Give the name you want in the report

Plural - Plural form of Label

Element - Give the field name along with database view prefix. If your database view prefix is tst and field name is u_custom_field, then element should be tst_u_custom_field

Thank you,

Hi @palanikumar,

I've created database view for RITM and SCTASK. I want to change the label name of Assignment group (Not a Custom field). So, as per your suggestion, I've followed and create Field labels for RITM and SCTASK. In list view it is showing properly, but when I am creating a Pivot report, it is not showing the Field Labels (Assignment group). Please see the below screenshots for the same:

Data base view: 

Field Labels:

Report:

So, please let me know how can we change the assignment group field labels in this report.

Thanks & Regards,
