Hi,

i don't want to make the number sequence manual, because from the UI, i still want the number sequence to be auto generated.
however, when i create a vendor through odata (VendorsV2), i would like to be able to insert manual number sequence.
i tried to remove the validation from the mapping but the error still appears

    Hi Deldyn,
     
    The number sequence is currently set up with a format based on segment configuration. In case the vendor numbers have only number characters, you can remove the format and ensure it will work with the Smallest and Largest values.
    Then you can also import numbers with a different pattern as it will not check for the format anymore.

    Hi Andre,

    I'm providing the number via oData, so yes there is an external system that provides a number that needs to be retained

    Hi Deldyn,
     
    The Call validate field setting is considered when you are using the import via data management. Are you providing a manual number because of OData isn't providing the number or is there an external system that provides a number that needs to be retained?

    Hi Ramit,

    I'm not importing via DMF, i mentioned in the question, that i'm calling the entity using odata.  so there is no auto generated field

    I removed the validation highlighted in yellow, but it's not working.
