Workspaces don't show the same field names as reports.

Do workspaces show the same field names as reports?

Environment: 

All versions, reports, workspaces.

Issue:

I know that there are certain fields in a table, but when I try to add them to a workspace, I cannot find them in the insert controls list. 

Resolution:

Workspace editors do not show the actual table and field names on the insert controls; rather they show a slightly different name. For example, in the incident workspace editor, the table/field combination "incidents.created" is shown as "Incident.Created." 

If you need to know the exact table & field names (such as for adding to a report) you can look in the data dictionary for the name as used directly in the database.
