Field exists in SQL Server but does not appear on AOT table

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

I'm attempting to fill a request for an index provided by the db administration team, however, there is a field in the database (I can view it through SSMS) that is not represented in the AOT table model. 

The table does not support inheritance, and I don't believe the field could have been created manually in SQL as I've checked multiple environments. 

I believe the field is system: batchJobs.STARTDATETIMETZID

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

    OK, thanks Nikolaos,

    It doesn't seem like this can be added. I will push back.

    I would not add this to an index. If the database administration team provided you some automatic report with index suggestions, you have to evaluate the suggestions and not implement everything as-is.

    Hi Kanoa,

    This field is generated automatically when you use DateTime fields in AX and you can't see it from AOT. It's quite interesting that you need to add to an index. At least I haven't' seen any index with that field. Should it be added as an included column?
