Project for Web App Outline Numbers missing from data tables
HI jsimmons25,
Did these fields exist in your dataset tables? If not, I think you need to add additional data sources in your report to get data and store it in power bi.

Hello Anonymous
I'm using the New Project for Web which as far as I know is using the CDS in msdyn. The outline number field seems to be autopoulated by a calulation when a new task is added. You can see the column on the Grid Display. The screenshot below is an example project I'm using to test. Please let me know of there is anymore information that I can provide.
Kind Regards,

Hi jsimmons25,
AFAIK, some fields not direct stored in your data table, so you need to check another table or major data tables for these fields.
Notice: you have a table 'TEST' with 10 fields, 6 fields are direct and stored in the 'TEST' table; others are logic fields that stored in the main table and link with correspond table id.
BTW, you can also contact to product support to confirm if they provide any rest API that allows you to get these hidden/logic fields.Regards,
