Transfer fields window
The transfer fields mapping is available from code in
Object view
and
Extended view
when TransferFields has two different tables
for source and target. Invoke by using the context menu on
TransferFields.
Alternatively, this window can be opened via the object context menu (enabled for tables, only).
Use this window to see how fields are mapped. The mapping includes fields from all extensions that are part of the workspace. The mapping is sorted by field number, as this what the mapping is based on (not the field name).
The following is a mapping of TransferFields(TimeSheetDetail)
in table 5510 "Employee Time Reg Buffer":
| # | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Source object |
The source table for the mapping, i.e. where values are copied from.
This is the argument to
TransferFields, here Time Sheet Detail.
|
| 2 | Target object |
The target table for the mapping, i.e. where values are copied to.
This is the record on which
TransferFields is called, here Employee Time Reg Buffer.
|
| 3 | Direction |
The direction of the TransferFields (from source on the right to target on the left)
corresponding to target.TransferFields(source).
|
| 4 | Search | Enter a search string to filter fields by name. |
| 5 | Change direction | Swaps source and target tables. |
| 6 | Field number | The field number of a field in the source and/or target tables. |
| 7 | Target name | Name of field with the row's field number in the target table. This is left blank if the source table does not have any fields with that number. |
| 8 | Target type | The type of the field in the target table. This is left blank if the target table does not have any fields with that number. |
| 9 | Source type | The type of the field in the source table. This is left blank if the source table does not have any fields with that number. |
| 10 | Source name | Name of field with the row's field number in the source table. This is left blank if the source table does not have any fields with that number. |
| 11 | Mapping indicator | Indicates whether the field is mapped or not with additional information added by different icons and tooltip. Not mapped: The field is not mapped (either source or target does not have this field number). Mapped ok: The field is mapped (both source and target have this field number).
Mapped error: The field is mapped and the types of the source and target fields differ which can lead to issues. These are the cases:
