When running Opportunity Product reports please make the OpportunityProductID field available. This is needed to use the DataLoader to mass modify or mass delete products from a group of Opportunities. Thanks.

You can report on this today. Create a Custom Report Type with these objects: Opportunities => Products You'll see a field called "Line Item ID" Go here to create a Custom Report Type: Setup=>Build=>Reports |

But why have to create and manage a custom report type if you just want one field. This can't be that hard to add to the standard report. |

We could add the field. But we get many requests - 100's - to add fields. We could even add all those fields into all the required reports (it would take a while). But we already have many users who say there are too many fields. Also, to avoid making users make mistakes, new fields have to be added at the end of the lists of fields for that object, so that existing users used to clicking in a certain spot for their fields don't click the wrong field. So the order would be off for your new field - it's not in alphabetical order, or any other. So we designed Custom Report Types to let you decide what fields go on the report types, so you can make it simple for your users. Also, to make things simpler for you, there is a blog post about creating this very report type. There is also a package listed at the end with the CRT in it, to which you'll just have to add this one field: http://blogs.salesforce.com/analytics/2007/10/opportunities-a.html |
