Error in the data entity when I want to update

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by JimmyP 70

I have this error in the data entity when I want to update data, but my table is global, that is, it does not have the DataAreaId field, how can I solve it?

Error:

A row created in the CustTableMasters dataset was not updated. Error message: "Write failed for table row of type 'CustTableMasterEntity'. Infolog: Error: The DimensionLegalEntityContextField property must be set to the DefaultDimension field or the PrimaryCompanyContext property to the data entity.."

Thank you.

    Hi Jimmy,

    The financial dimensions should be linked to a legal entity. A global table can't contain the dimension values. You can consider adding a specific field to mention one legal entity if the dimensions are the same in all legal entities. If there could be a difference you can also consider creating a related table called e.g. CustTableMastersDefaultDimensions which could contain records with values per dimension attribute

    Thank you André.

    The entity has the relationship field and another field where the values are stored.

    Hi André.

    I'm still not resolved, the dataareaid will be essential?

    Hi Jimmy,

    You can extend you entity with a field representing a legal entity/company ID. Then you can fill the property Dimension Legal Entity Context Field on the DefaultDimension fields with this new field to let the application know for which legal entity it should verify the dimensions and the values.
