Virtual entity related columns throws error

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by TomSmelser 1,570

Hello,

I am testing virtual entities in CRM. I found good examples of using related lookup entity to display in view.

Example: a courses has a parent subject.

See here: https://www.trellispoint.com/dynamics-365-for-sales-data-integration-with-virtual-entities/

But I have not located an example of displaying related fields from the lookup/parent.

For example a subject has Abbreviation code. If I try to add that to a view it throws an error on display.

Is this even possible?

Thank you,

Tom
