Cyrstal Report 2008 and SAP BW

Question

Hi,
BOE 3.1, Crystal Report 2008 and SAP Integration Kit 3.1 installed on the window server 2003.
Trying to build the Crystal Report on top of SAP BI 7.
Set the MDX driver setting in Crystal Report.
In Crystal Report, I click on Create Report from Query.
Now on the Field Explorer, I can see that each Characteristic has generated the following:
Example:
Company Code
-->Company Code Node ID
-->Company Code Parent Node ID
-->Company Code Member Unique Key
-->Key
-->Medium Name
-->Char of accounts (Key)
-->Chart of accoutns (Long Name)
1) I understand that the following are generated by Crystal Report, but where are the Chart of account (Key and Long Name) coming from??? I dont have this in the Query Designer.
There are many other field appears under the Company Code charateristic but I dont know where are there coming from?
-->Company Code Node ID
-->Company Code Parent Node ID
-->Company Code Member Unique Key
-->Key
-->Medium Name
Now, I have drap-and-drop the characteristic Company Code and use it in the Crystal Report.
2) Strange, when I preview the Crystal Report, it is display as Text (Medium Name) where as this is display as Key in Query Designer.
Why?
Please help, thank you.

Hi,
see below:
) I understand that the following are generated by Crystal Report, but where are the Chart of account (Key and Long Name) coming from??? I dont have this in the Query Designer.
There are many other field appears under the Company Code charateristic but I dont know where are there coming from?
-->Company Code Node ID
-->Company Code Parent Node ID
-->Company Code Member Unique Key
-->Key
-->Medium Name
>>> Chart of account most likely are DISPLAY ATTRIBUTES
Now, I have drap-and-drop the characteristic Company Code and use it in the Crystal Report.
2) Strange, when I preview the Crystal Report, it is display as Text (Medium Name) where as this is display as Key in Query Designer.
>>> if you take the field from the field explorer without open the list / collapse it the default that is being displayed is the text.
