Hi friends, greeting!

I added additional fields to the Data Entity, but those additional fields only appear in the Excel Add-in. And it doesn't appear in Data Management - field mapping.
Due to the large amount of data I can't just use the Excel add-in. I need Data Management import too. Is there a solution, my friend?

Regards,
Antony

Did you regenerate the Data entity mapping in DMF after adding them?

Hi Michael,

Three things to point out:

Have you added the fields to the staging table too? If not, you'll need to add them manually since it's a Data Entity extension.

Second, go to Framework Parameters on Data Management, and refresh the entity list after compiling and db sync. It sometimes helps with this kind of issues.

And lastly, as mentioned before, regenerate mapping on the DM import project.

Hi Michael,

1.Did you run the job of refreshing the data entity When added new field？

2.You need to regenerate the data mapping of the data entity AS mentioned for

The reason is of not showing the new field in data entity columns list is because of the mapping of the field among staging and data entity.

Hi Danilo,

Thank you for your suggestions.

Turns out I haven't added that field to the staging table. After I added it, then regenerated the mapping in UI 365, the field now appears in my mapping.

Thankyou so much.

Antony
