I'm creating a Hybris impex file to import into my Database.
I want to perform an INSERT_UPDATE action with the data from the file, so I need to tell Hybris which column(s) need to be unique, so that it knows when to update a record instead of insert it.
I know that to tell Hybris that a certain column needs to be unique I can add the unique attribute to that column, like this:
INSERT_UPDATE SLEmployee;Firstname[unique=true, required=true];Lastname[required=true];Function;
But on my example above, how do I tell Hybris that the combination of the columns Firstname + Lastname must be unique?
> how do I tell Hybris that the combination of the
> columns Firstname + Lastname must be unique?
Add the unique keyword to every field that is part of the combined key
INSERT_UPDATE SLEmployee;Firstname[unique=true];Lastname[unique=true];Function;
While creating attributes in itemtype, make sure unique modifier is set true for all the attributes you want to be considered for the combination. Prepare data accordingly.

Scenario - CD field is defined with ISKey =true while in Database ID field is used as Primary key Key column
The CD field is bind with AutoNumbering sequence.
User generated multiple documents lets say from 0001 to 0034 now he come back to autonumbering sequence and changed the LastNumberUsed to 0001 again.
Now when the new document is created the latest number given is 0002 while this number is already used.
I think acumatica should not allow any document with the same key field even if the document is created by the code.
Please suggest.
Based on my understanding, I can suggest two different methods for achieving this. You can try either of those approaches.
You can add PXUnique attribute to CD field which won't allow duplicates for the field to be saved.
You can validate the CD field for duplicates inside RowPersisting event which will ensure to not save any duplicate value in the field.
Yes. Acumatica will not allow to use the same number(Key field always unique) again. We can use any prefix in the last Number

I'm trying to make Saved Search which has Transaction fields that I want to join any other type's fields.
When I make Criteria, Result in Saved Search, I realized there is limitation to bring certain field.
I know the Type & Internal ID, so I used formula(numeric) and insert custom_item.realamount(This is actually what I want to know). But this wasn't show a value.
How can I make these two types to join each other?
There is no field in Netsuite called custom_item If you are trying to join a custom item field on a transaction search formula field then you'd be looking at a join like
{item.custitem_uniquepart_}
Where _uniquepart_ is either an integer if the custom field was created without a custom id value or it's the value entered for the id field of the custom field.
I am trying to create a lookup. I want to select from PERSON table - if I select a value through lookup, person id is selected, but I need display name value. I have tried by creating a table domain, lookup table, lookup.XML and all methods.
If you need the DisplayName copied to the local object in addition to the PersonID, then instead of a Table Domain, you need a Crossover Domain with DisplayName as a Source Field and with your local attribute that should hold the copy of Person.DisplayName as the Target Field.
If you need the DisplayName copied to the local object instead of the PersonID, then you'll need to make a lookup map on the target attribute so Maximo knows what attribute returned by the domain maps to which attribute on the local object. You set Lookup Maps with the little, white, "page" icon/button on the right side of the Attributes tab in Database Configuration for the desired target attribute.
If you just need to see the DisplayName once a PersonID is selected, then use a Mulitpart Textbox and set "Attribute for Part 2" to something like PERSON.DISPLAYNAME, where PERSON is the name of the relationship from the local object to the PERSON object.
As Preacher already mentioned, you can copy the DISPLAYNAME attribute using a lookup map - on the Database Configuration application, go to the attribute to which you want to copy - probably the one, where you used the table domain on - and click the icon.
If you have created a custom field and have no Java class on it, you will still need the table domain, so leave that on the attribute. Now, on the lookup map, you can define which fields you want to copy from the source MBO to the target MBO. You can define multiple target fields from here (so no need to define a crossover domain, even if you need to copy multiple fields) - just enter a new line for any field you want to copy from the source (Person) object.
On many versions of Maximo you will have to restart before this starts working! I believe you don't have to restart on 7.6, but on any previous version you will probably have to.
Now, about the definition in lookups.XML: if you want to show different attributes than the ones, already shown on the default "person" lookup, you need to define your own, as you did. If the default one looks fine, for you, you can just use "person" as the lookup, since the logic of copying fields is defined in the lookup map, not in lookups.XML.
I have a problem deleting a custom field from a vendor in NetSuite. When I try to delete it I get the following error message.
This custom field cannot be deleted because it is referred to by other custom fields
I've looked at many of my other custom fields and columns but I can't find any that are referencing this one. Is there a way to find all fields that refer to a particular custom field?
This is because you might be using this custom field value some where else. I'm not sure if there is any inbuilt functionality to identify the other fields which are being referred by your custom field. I had a similar issue but I solved it using mass update. I set that field value for all the vendor as blank then I was able to delete the custom field.
In case it is a custom list field then follow the steps bellow :
First delete the list from Setup > Customization > Transaction Item Options, then from the Custom Item Fields and then finally from the Custom Lists
To narrow down the list of fields to check, go to Customization->Lists, Records & Fields->Entity Fields. Sort that list by the Vendor column. That is the list that needs to be checked. Open each of these fields, and check that the 'Field' under the 'Validation and Defaulting' tab is not your custom field that you want to delete. Then check the values on the 'Sourcing and Filtering' tab as well.
Good luck, and hopefully there is not too many vendor fields to check this way!
I am trying to create a custom Audit summary report based on a date range that needs to be emailed nightly. I've got most of it working, but need some help with getting the primary name/field/attribute for a referenced entity. I noticed in the Audit view for a referenced entity, the data is stored like 'systemuser;'. What I would like to do is grab the Primary Field (Primary Name, Primary Attribute, whatever it's called) to display on the report. Does anyone know how to find the Primary Name attribute for an entity using the MetadataSchema views in the CRM SQL database? I have found the Primary Key field by looking at the MetadataSchema.Attribute.IsPKAttribute field, but I don't see anything for the Primary Name field.
Also, I am grabbing the current values from the entities if there are no following audit entries. For the lookup fields (like owner or customer) how can I tell from the Metadata what field stores the ObjectTypeCode? For example, if I was looking up the customer on a sales order, I know I can look at CustomerIdType field to find the ObjectTypeCode, but I need to find that the field is called CustomerIdType from the metadata.
If anyone has any good references on the Metadata from the SQL side of CRM, I would greatly appreciate it.
SQL query to get primary fields for all entities
SELECT e.Name as 'entity', a.Name as 'primary field'
FROM [dbo].EntityView e
left join [dbo].AttributeView a on e.EntityId = a.EntityId
where (a.DisplayMask & 256) > 0 --256 is for primary field
order by e.name
There are two cases to get object type code of lookup
append Type to field name (i.e. CustomerIdType)
if above is not available, get it from AttributeMetadata
SELECT ReferencedEntityObjectTypeCode
FROM [Discworld_MSCRM].[dbo].[AttributeView]
where name = '<field name>' and entityid = '<entity id>'
I'm not sure what exact rules are for Type fields to exist
