Hi - is it possible to change the field names to be that of the field description with Evolve Report based on a Query?

Thank you Ronald. When creating a Report with referencing to your own Query, I don't see the options to edit the SQL, only Runtime values.

Hi Renette,

It should be possisble to change the field names as the query is SQL. The field name is generated at the "select" command as in below example. 
You can change the field name 'Status' in any name.

Hi Renette,

In Evolve, you cannot provide an alias for a field when creating a report based on a Query Script. The alias option or SQL query window is only available when using the SQL (Manual) option. You can raise an idea Aha! item to suggest this as a potential improvement.

Thank you Divya, I will log a suggestion.

For the interim, I will provide the end user with a SAP field Glossary. Best I can do for now.
