Posted on by 175

Hi Experts  & Support,

I have added 2 custom fields i.e. 'Employment Status' & 'Resident Status' in the Employee page. When the Employee page is opened in Excel (exported the data), the newly added custom fields are not appearing. Through data-connector tried to search the custom fields but in the tables also couldn't found the columns (please refer below the screenprint.

In the System Administration --> Custom Field page, the newly added custom fields are not appearing.

Note: System Administration --> Personalization page, access of newly added custom fields are given to all users. 

Kindly help.

    Hi Anwar,

    Please note that once you have created a new custom field it has to be added to the right table and later the new field has to added/ enabled on the correct entity.

    When you have saved all your changes and applied them, you may export the entity via excel workbook designer which will have the new field or else go to 
    make.powerapps.com, select the right environment

    Search for the right entity, verify if the custom field has been correctly added or not-

    Click on Edit data in excel-

    This workbook has the new custom field by which you can either export or push new data into the system.

    Note:- Standard export will not fetch custom field and related data simply because the new field is not a part of standard entity.

    Hope this helps! Good luck.
