In web view standard reports have the option to output both Fund ID and Description
Posting this idea inspired by a community post from Jill Gerig. Different organizations use Fund ID and Fund Description in different ways. We would like the option to output the fields that support our internal business processes. Please reference https://community.blackbaud.com/forums/viewtopic/143/72474 for an example.

Thank you for considering this idea!
Finance uses the Fund ID. Development uses the Fund Description. We need both options, also.
Agreed I would like to have fund ID and fund description both output in reports as we use both for many things internal to our team and external to our team
Organizations need choices. Many have set up IDs and Descriptions that are quite distinct but work well for different internal teams. For instance, IDs may make sense to finance offices while Descriptions make more sense to fundraising staff and even external donors if printed on receipts or acknowledgement letters.
Blackbaud says they want customers to use the webview tools and provide feedback. After one attempt, many customers can confirm that this report, as is, needs adjustment before it can be useful.
