Entity Form with filtered Datasource?

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 21

Hopefully easy question.

 

Is it possible to use a filter function in the "Datasource" property of the "experimental entity form" to filter a custom CDS entity please?

 

I get the following error : "Only Common Data Service Entities are supported as a data source"

Thanks

    Hi @rcotgrov,

     

    Yes, it is possible to use filter function in the Datasource Property of the entity form control.

    So the issue here should be related with the formula you used in the filter:

    IndirectPartner_ID.PartnerID = "Test"

    Is it a Lookup filed? 

    For lookup field, it seems currently this data type is not supported delegation when using the filter function under Common Data Service:

    Adding the form control blog for reference:

    New Entity form control (Experimental feature ) for Common Data Service

     

    Regards,

    Michael
