When creating reports that use FetchXML, some field types are returned with two fields, the name of the field and the name of the field with Value appended, fieldValue.
The table shows the field types that I found that have a Value version. Other CRM field types only return one field and are of type String.
The Value version returns the value of the field as stored in CRM, the “non”-value version returns a formatted version of the field according to the user’s settings in Personal Options.
