Hi,
I've got what I feel like is a pretty standard client requirement that I have found a solution for but I have hit what looks like a minor limitation. The requirement is to clone a record from a form within a Model-Driven app. So I'm using Patch and the command bar. It's been working just fine until today when I realized I needed to add a couple calculated fields. Any time I add a calculated field, I get the following error back from the button on the command bar:
The specified column is generated by the server and can't be specified.
As soon as I remove the calculated field from the Patch statement, all is well again. This leads me to believe that Patch does not support calculated fields. This seems like a limitation? I would try using a formula type field but I read that it's still in Preview and it's not recommended to push that to production anytime soon. My only other option I can think of would be to resort to a Flow that would update a different type of field but that seems drastic. Does Patch really not play nice with calculated fields?
