entity that has two columns with different physical names but the same logical name

I ask if it ever happened to you and how you solved it. 
I'm using powerapps with CDS. My problem is that using
the physical names of the fields of an entity without
errors the day after powerapps alone replaces them with the
logical name randomly and giving error.
From the outset I have an entity that has two columns with
different physical names but the same logical name, unfortunately.
Can I avoid the error of automatic substitution, leaving me the physical
names? Why the alternative is to propose to other groups
to put different logical names with problems of their new developments,
testing etc
Some idea?

Thanks

    Hi @BlackRos ,

    Do you mean that your field's Display Name will change to Logic Name by default?

    That's a little strange.

    I suggest you post your issue here:

    https://powerapps.microsoft.com/en-us/support/pro/ticket/

    What's more, in one entity, you can not have two fields with same logic Name.

    Logic Name should be unique.

    I suggest you modify these two fields' logic name.

     

     

     

    Best regards,
