I recently ran into this problem with the SalesTax field on the Sales Tax List Report. I received advice from a veteran Axapta developer which saved time and fixed the same problem in multiple areas.
First you will need to find the name of the extended data type. Then go into the AOT under "Data Dictionary", expand the "Entended Data Types" and look at the properties. For TaxCode is shows the string Size is 10 but the display lenghth is 7. Duh! Change the dispaly length property to 10 or 11 characters and the TaxCode displays properly on all reports. Good luck!
