Change Data Entity field label through X++ code

Posted on by 15

Is it possible to change the label of a Data Entity field at time of export using X++ code? I have an entity with several generic fields that content isn't determined until time of export. I'd like to appropriately label the entity field based on the data it contains.

    Hi John,

    Are your entities customized? If you add fields to an existing entity, you can set labels for them. This setting is done in the wizard though, by selecting the Convert label to field names option. What label format are you trying to set for the fields when you export?
