I have moved a specific table extension from one specific overlaying model (which belong to ApplicationSuite) to a new specific Package (in full extension).

When i build my project i have this error on a table extensions: All the specific extensions fields already exist:

"The field 'XXX' on the extension 'CaseDetailBase.MyExtension' already exists. This extension cannot be applied to the base element."

I check the xml file in the origin folder model: not exist => OK

I had try with no success:

-http://mybhat.blogspot.fr/2017/07/error-field-fieldname-on-extension.html => KO

-Full Build of all models with referenced packages + Build of the project => KO

-Full Build of the ApplicationSuite + Build of the project =>KO

-Full Build of my new Model + Build of the project => KO

-Destroy the object from my project  + Full Build of all models whith referenced packages + check with a new test extension file (no specific fields seen => Ok)

  => errors are gone then i paste the xml file in my target model folder + refresh model  in Visual Studio + build of my project: KO  => errors reappears

Any Ideas?

    Hi Sukrut,

    It does not work.

    Just a thought, Is it because there is another extension of table existing with the same fields that you have created in your extension.

    You could recheck by doing this step

    1. Destroy the object from my project  + Full Build of all models whith referenced packages + check with a new test extension file (no specific fields seen => Ok)

    2. Then create a runnable class and then try to reference the table to see if your field exists.

    Already check:

    -Not duplicate xml file

    -When i delete the extension and recreate a new extension i not see duplicate fields and no errors appears after building.
