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 ?

If it is dev environment then use ForceSync to install the new app.

Hi Peter Ng,

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

Thanks Eater, Mohana,

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