Add subcomponent without dependent components

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 223

Hello Dears,

I'm trying to create a solution with specific fields and business rules.

I added this subcomponents by adding the entity firstly without any subcomponents, then added the subcomponent from inside the entity.

But while adding the subcomponent it adds the dependencies automatically, for example if there is a lookup to a contact the contact entity will be added automatically.

Any Help regarding this issue,

Best

    Hi,

    This is an expected behavior. Ensure that when you add a component, select 'No' when it ask add dependent component. However I have noticed that even following this, sometime (as you have mentioned), the main entity gets added by default when you add a lookup field. This is because a lookup field is a result of the relationship between 2 entities and when you add the entity, it automatically adds the other entity with just the relationship.

    The best way for you is to review your solution componenet, remove what you think is not required, export and ensure no dependency issues .

    Hope this helps.
