Using SQL for calculated fields

I have a customer code that I fetch from a database table (in the report query), and I want to fetch a description for that code from another table, without use a join in the main query. It's possibile to use SQL syntax for a calculated field or there is another way to proceed?

Thanks for the answer.

1 Answer:

In Jasper Studio you can add a new data set
Right click on the report in the outline and chose Create Data Set 
 
This should create a subDataset in the jrxml something like this
<subDataset name="Dataset1" uuid="389126dd-bee9-4370-8d2f-72c1d645d833">  <property name="com.jaspersoft.studio.data.defaultdataadapter" value="MyDatabase-AdapterName"/>  <queryString>   <![CDATA[SELECT * FROM Table1]]>  </queryString> </subDataset>
