Extended Search on a column not listed in the Report

Hello everyone,
I have a view called ‘news_vw’. It has different fields i.e. NewsDate, Sector, Issues, IssueCount. What I want is to create a summary report having all the fields except NewsDate grouped by Sector. However, I want filtering/extending searching facility on NewsDate. Is there any mechanism to do it? If not what’s the alternative way to do it.
Thank you.

  1. Make sure you have already enabled Show option from Fields setup → Report Page
  2. Make sure you have already put this code in Page_DataRendering server event of your Summary Report:
$this->YourFieldName->Visible = false; // adjust YourFieldName to your actual field name

Thank you. Actually, the issue is that if I make the visibility false, it will only make the column hidden. I also want to omit Group By aggregate calculation on NewsDate field.

You may Inspect HTML element and find out the CSS classes of those rows/cells, then you may try to add your CSS styles to hide them.
