Hi Junaid,

No need to create a new entity - Just drag and drop the fields from Datasource to the Data entity fields. If the field is not visible at DataSource level, just right click the data entity and click on Restore. Also add the new field to field groups also if required.

After that right click the data entity and click on Update staging table - This will add the field to staging table also.

Thanks,

Girish S.
