How to prevent RapidStart in BC from adding the table Config. Media Buffer when exporting?

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Jan-Willem van der ... 10

I have the following situation:

A customer is moving from NAV2017 to BC SaaS, we're providing them with RapidStart packages to port their data. I would like to send them .rapidstart files with the correct metadata: tables and fields.

The problem now is that when I export some packages, the table Config. Media Buffer is automatically added and exported. This table doesn't exist in NAV2017, so the customer gets an error.

I did enable "Exclude configuration tables", which didn't work.

I have a potential workaround: Create a RapidStart package containing the metadata for the other RapidStart packages. But I'm still curious why this table is needed and how to prevent this behavior. I'm guessing it has something to do with the way Images and the like are stored in BC?

Would love to hear your ideas!

    @Josesv  I'm pretty sure you're a bot. Your answer makes no sense, has a weird link and quotes half of my question directly. I reported you.

    Hi,

    Config Media Buffer contains images for tables like Item images, customer images etc.

    If you want to exclude this table then remove the Picture field from all the tables that you have included in config package. Then on exporting this package Config Media Buffer will not be created. I have verified this.

    Please verify if this helps you.

    Thanks,

    Bilal Rai
