# Fields in Reports (Preview)

## What

When we are building smart groups and reports, it is very helpful to have a live representation of what our query is returning. This data preview (the bottom half of the smart group/report definition window) gives us this data live as we edit the query. Frequently though, we want different fields in this preview than what are given to us by default.

## When/Why

Let's assume for a moment that we want a smart group or report that contains information on FileWave clients that have not been upgraded to version 14. Now, we can edit our conditions to say "FileWave Client Version" ≠ 14.0, and we can just trust that this works and we have the proper results. *Yeah, we wouldn't trust that either!*  Much better to actually put the FileWave Client Version field into our preview so that we can "eyeball" the data to make sure it is right.

## How

Watch below as we remove some of the default provided fields and add FileWave Client Version:
