Hi David,

Currently, finding a column is only possible within a table, but not in the entire project.

Identifying how a column was calculated is possible when you click the "Lineage" button in a calculated dataset. However, the lineage is hard to establish if a column isn't calculated.

If you only need to track the column in the project's result table, you may want to publish the projects as computed datasets into the Data Catalog provided by EasyMorph Server. The Catalog stores searchable metadata for each column of the result table. Additionally, each column can have a description. To publish a computed dataset, press the "Publish to Catalog" button.
