Index on Embedded

Question

Hi,

I have an entity Address embedded in another entity Company.
I just want to add an index like it's possible to do in Company based on a field which is in Address. There is no way to do that actually.

Is it possible to add in the "Indexes" window of an entity the list of the fields of Embedded entities ?

Thanks!

Hi,

unfortunately, this is a current limitation of embedded relations. Currently, it's possible to add indexes for base fields in base entities and indexes for derived fields in the derived entity. But it's not possible to add the index to the base field in the derived entity.

We have this in our todo but it's not an easy task. The problem isn't in displaying field chooser but in the correct handling of all base fields in derived entity during import/export.
