Beta report builder needs hyperlinks to view records when using Table format
I've just tried out the new report builder beta this morning. I noticed that when I added a 'table' component there was no 'hyperlink' option next to record names or IDs (compare this to the list of records displayed when you click on a bar in a Report chart in a Dashboard).
This means I can't use the table component as desired with three objects (so am going to have try to solve with the cross-object custom Report instead (but is likely to be a problem given my data needs....)
Same here - our team is using a beta report in multiple meetings and are unable to have linked options for quicker updates as we are talking through them. This would be great to have as a on off fun ction for beta reports! If not - they just become a static board really.
This would be really useful to have! We have used a dashboard to do an audit to ensure sensitive data hasn't made it onto the system. The preview box for subject and note body doesn't;t show enough text - a hyperlink would be so so useful to then drill down into the email/note in question.
Several of my clients' sales people want to essentially see tables in 1 dashboard of contacts they've emailed, calls they've made, deals they're working, and tasks assigned to them. They don't want to click into different parts of the system, which makes sense to me.
We can do this for deals, but not calls or contacts (at least not with links). This would be immensely helpful for better product adoption at these companies.
I'm very surprised this isn't fixed yet. For the single source reports it works for all standard objects, but for custom objects it doesnt work (example below with job as a custom object) . Also in the custom report builder it doesnt work for any of the reports.
I tried creating a workaround with a property with the link of the record but this also doesn't allow to open the record:Example of a job custom object table report with no possibility to open the record
This issue needs to be adressed as soon as possible. It often defeats the purpose of the report building, advantaging the Single Object Report Builder over the Custom Report Builder.
Bumping. I was shocked this wasn't already implemented as a feature when I saw it on an idea thread in creatured in mid 2022. The fact that this was brought up back in 2020 makes it even worse.
