I have a client that is using the Telerik Report Designer (standalone) with a DLL that is used in conjunction with the Object Data Source used in their reports.

Everything is working properly, though they are requesting to see if there is a way that metadata can be provided on the POCO fields so that a description of the field will be displayed (for instance, in the tooltip) within the Data Explorer.

 This would greatly aid in the usability of the standalone Telerik Report Designer tool.

 Is there a current way to achieve this ?

Hello Carey,

Currently there is no option to provide metadata for the data fields and display it inside the Expression Builder. You can log this feature request in the public Ideas & Feedback portal. Depending on the demand we will adjust its priority for development and implementation.
