How to add the comment field to a report?

[whoami]

Hello everyone,

I can't seem to figure out where to find the "comments" field from an asset's edit page in the report builder.

I've seen results online for adding comments from the "comments tab" of an asset. But I am looking for the "comments" field which doesn't seem to be included in tblAssetsComments. I can only find the "description" field under "tblAssets". Perhaps I need more coffee.

It is located in tblassetcomments.comment

I tried adding that table, but only seem to get the auto-generated comments from "AddedBy" Lansweeper.

It doesn't seem to pull in comments added by user's on the main asset info page.

I added the tblAssetsComments table using a full join to tblAssets to ensure I wasn't missing anything.

Hello there!

This tblAssetComments stores the comments added to your assets’ Comments tab. Note that the Comments field found in the Summary tab pulls from tblAssetCustom.Comments instead and is provided for backward compatibility with older Lansweeper releases.

This is also documented in our database documentation: https://community.lansweeper.com/t5/reporting/access-lansweeper-database-documentation/ta-p/64481

Thanks! Not sure how I missed that. I think I kept scrolling over it in the editor.
