Develop Data Entities Using SQL Views

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 28

Dear All,

Can any one help me design a Data Entity using an SQL View? I have made data entities using Data Entity Wizard and it only provides with the Primary Data Source which are tables in the Database. I have made views when using Dynamics 365, On-Premises, but now we are planning to move on cloud. I want to use the SQL Views that I developed to create Data Entities. Help Required.

    The wizard allows adding related tables too. The GUI isn't completely intiuitive, so you maybe missed the option.

    You can use AOT views as data sources of data entities. You can't add a view in SQL and refer to it from F&O application.
