Hello,

is it possible to change name on search objects selected field names?

Eg. i want to search on DimProduct.ProductName - But i also see this in my Search string. Can i do something so it says ProductName

Hi,

If i understand you correct, you have used QUALIFY *; from your script. So, if you don't want the ProductName with qualification then, just use UNQUALIFY ProductNmae; next the the QUALIFY* statement.

True! Is there another way to change the name?

You could also create this field twice with another name and use this in the searchbox, but this cost more ressources. Fieldnames could also be change per Rename-Statement, perhaps in the end from script.
