Delete table extension of a deprecated standard table

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 510

Hi all, 

Can a table extension be deleted after publishing the extension?

So, if i have a Table extension that extends a standard table, but that standard Table will be deprecated by Microsoft, how can the table extension be deleted? I understand that to move the data, one needs to mark the fields as obsolete and move the data to a new table extension but what about the actual extension object? A table extension does not have the obsolete property. 

On one hand, once the standard table is completely deprecated by Microsoft, the extension will no longer be compatible and will cause issues as the table extension will be extending a table that no longer exist but on the other hand one can't just delete the extension object due to the schema.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

    Is this question related to a table extension in SaaS or OnPrem?

    From BC19, you can make breaking change. When you upload the app, change the Schema Sync Mode to Force.
