When entering the "See Records" view, it allows you to decide which columns you view while you are in the "See Records", but after exiting "See Records" it reverts to the original view and removes the edits.

There should be an option to save the edits made within the "See Records" view so the unnecessary columns can be removed and the important information can be viewed more easily, and can be saved so the report keeps the edits made when saved.

Much needed. Its swamping my end users with a heap of calculation columns i use for conditional formatting.

Echo everyone for their comments. This is indeed very useful to present the data to support our analysis with Power BI.

This is absolutely essential (and shouldn't be all that complicated) and can't believe this has been an open issue for more than 3 years. PLEASE make this a priority!

RE: See Records Column Setup

Really need this, seems like a basic function that should've been there for years.

Please !!!!!
using the On premise Desktop (September 2019), this is very important to be able to customize the Show records view.
