Hi All,
I have created a simple data entity for export and import which is just working fine.
Here in the list of fields we have one enum field and for this field we are using the value as the element name of the enum not the.
client want to give and take data as respective label ID of the enum element.
What is the best possible solution for the same.
Hi rohit,
Normally enum labels will only display on the forms. Try giving enum label as value in the excel and import it. It will work.
Thanks,
Girish S.
Sorry does not work like that i tried and got the error message as below :
The column XXXXXX in entity XXXXXXEntity has incorrect data. Please correct the data and try the import again.
I am using d 365
Using a label ID is a strange requirement, because users and external systems usually have no idea what IDs like @SYS22361 mean.
But if you wish, you can use a virtual field to get label IDs. Using a computed column would also be possible, but it's significantly more work in this case.
Hi Martin, Can you suggest which 2 methods should I use for writing the business logic in the data entity, well i tried few of standard method and it seems it is not working should I use insert and update method of data entity for inserting the value
I guess you're talking about a virtual field. In that case, use postLoad() and mapEntityToDataSource(). You can find more information, including concrete examples, in F&O documentation: Computed columns and virtual fields in data entities.
