Remarks

In Report Builder, the BaseEntity is the primary entity. The primary entity is first determined when the user drags the first entity, field or set of fields to the design area. The primary entity may change depending on what fields and entities are added to the report. The primary entity changes when the user crosses a one-to-many relationship along a path and selects a scalar attribute.
