how to use a extended table in a form datasource

Hi Dinesh,

From the images that you sent; you mean you make extension of Sales Table and added new fields. If you see now your Datasource has the new fields? so what is your problem?

If you are talking about, make your new custom table extends Sales Table, then you should create new table add the new fields (Company and Mobile number) and set the property Extends in your new table to SalesTable.

Thanks,

Waed Ayyad

how to use a extended table in a form datasource

Hi,

I have replicated the same scenario with adding two fields in the existing table and added the table in custom form it was working fine. don't try to drag and drop your table in the form DataSource instead create a new data source and add the existing table in the property level for your reference I'm attaching the images below. If you face any issue, try to put full synchronization.

Regards,

Dinesh

Hi Community member,

I think it should work. For example try and drag and drop DirPerson, does it work? (DirPerson extends DirPartyTable)

Set the original table (the table you extended) as your datasource. You will be able to see the new fields that are in your extension.

You're asking in D365 general forum, but your question clearly is about a particular product and not about D365 in general (regardless of the product). Isn't it F&O?
