Cloud Migration Issue After Renaming Fields

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 2
Hi,
 
during cloud migration from 20.x  to 23.5 I have encountered the following issue. Custom fields on standard tables have not been replicated. Before cloud migration, the custom extension has been copied and modified to better fit the cloud. Additionally all objects and fields have been renamed, previously all of them had a prefix XXX and now it's been changed to YYY. This means that the versions of the apps in the on-premises environment and in the cloud environment are different. Is it possible to solve this problem and somehow map the fields? I tried using /Manage Custom Tables/ but to no avail.

    Hi,
     
    No, it's not possible.
     
    The Extension Id, field names, field data types and field length should be same in on-perm and saas environment.
     
    The replication process copies data from SQL database where it requires the same information in both systems on-prem and SaaS.
