What custom RTC fields are available in the data warehouse?
There are many custom field types I can add to a Work Item as I extend RTC, such as Short String, Medium String, Enumeration, etc. However, it's not clear how all of these field types are represented (or if they are) in the data warehouse.
I know that some field types, such as the "List" types, are not brought to the data warehouse by the DCC jobs. I'm not sure about the "HTML" fields. Is there a full list available of which field types are reportable and which to avoid if you'd like to use them for reporting? |

The following jazz.net thread may not give an absolute answer, but can be a good reference:

I'm familiar with the data warehouse tables, but it's not always obvious as to which field types populate which tables. You said "Custom HTML attributes are available" but how do I know where that data goes? Do I assume it goes in the REQUEST_STRING_L_EXT

Hello Jackie,
to my knowledge there isn't a list like this (would be nice to have). The closest resource I can think of is the data dictionary: Custom Attribute https://jazz.net/help-dev/clm/index.jsp?re=1&topic=/com.ibm.team.reports.doc/topics/ccm/Custom-Attribute.html&scope=null Best Regards, Francesco Chiossi Comments

I did check the data dictionary to see if it had anything on the topic, however since these are custom attributes they wouldn't be found.

Hello Jackie,

You can create a report in report builder that uses the custom attributes and look at the generated SQL. |
