how to realize a link between company and attributes?

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 219

Hello in our old environment (2015) we used to tag companies and contacts with attributes e.g. "party-2020"

For that we used 2 tables. One table with the meta data called "atttribute"

and another one called "attribution" which has 3 columns.

1. Company id (necessary)

2. Contact Id (not necessary)

3. Attribute id(necessary)

with this table we linked the attribute to company/contact

What ways are given in 365 to make this easier? Do I still need the 2 tables or can I organise it in one?

thanks for the help

    Hello,

    I believe that based on your setup (because you have contactid field in the intersection entity) you still need the third table.

    If this field is not essential you can drop that intersection entity and use N-N relationship between your Company and Attribute.
