Mandatory fields of Data Entity

(2) ShareShare

Posted on by 129
Hello, 
 
When using data entity thru DMF to import or update data in D365 FAO, how to quickly determine the mandatory fields to be included in the import file? Is there a way to see this thru X++ code (is it the primary key setup)?  I did a copilot and suggested checking the staging table in SQL DB but all fields are set to not null constraints.  
 
Thanks!

    Hi Joseph,
     
    To check which field is mandatory and which are part of Key, you can simply create a export project, add your data entity, and click on Entity Attribute
    Here we can see, the fields which are mandatory and which are part of key.
     
    The entity attributes get stored in table : DMFDefinitionGroupEntityXMLFields (only for those entities, which are part of any data projects).
     
    Regards,
