hidden job #

When a job is posted to an APP, QB assigns a Job #, but doesn't appear anywhere except when you view a job or edit a job.
Is there a way to incorporate that Job # into a report?
  • Hi Ron,

    You would want to go into the field list for the table you are working in and look for that Job # field. When you open up the field settings for that field you can check and see if it is set to be reportable. That is a checkbox that appears at the very bottom of the field. This checkbox decides whether a field can be added to a report and if it isn't enabled then it is hidden by default. I hope this suggestion is helpful Ron and certainly let me know if you are still having issues with that. 
  • Thanks Evan.  I have looked at the field list and it doesn't show the Job #.  Is there a way to unhide that field?
  • I found the field I was looking for.  Its called the Record ID, but appears as Job # when viewing the job.
    Thanks for your help.
  • I'm glad I was able go help. Fields can be renamed on the forms, that is most likely why you saw the two different names. Have a great day.
