How to remove field in Development Environment

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 295

I added new field "Not Purchased" in table Item in Dev Environment (On Premise)

tableextension 50113 "TLC ITem Ext" extends Item
{
    fields
    {
        field(50001; "Not Purchased"; Boolean)
        {
            Caption = 'Not Allow Purchased';
            DataClassification = CustomerContent;
        }
    }

    var
        myInt: Integer;
}
Then I recognized that it is not necessary to add this field because there is a field "Purchase Blocked"
When I tried to delete the code, and Run Debugging to Dev Environment, it showed the error: Reason: TableExtension TLC ITem Ext :: The field 'Not Purchased' cannot be located. Removing fields is not allowed.
Is there any way to remove the field on Dev Environment or I need to restore a new DB ?

    Thanks Eater, Mohana,

    After set schemaUpdateMode: "ForceSync" in the launch.json,  I could debug without error.

    Hi Peter Ng,

    You have to set schemaUpdateMode: "ForceSync" in the launch.json like Mohana said
