Re: Subsets , Calculated Fields and Logicals

As a further workaround, when the calculated fields are more complicated (i.e. using TBC in MOROUT), you can create an SQL view with CASE statements (or whatever you need) to do the logic and have all of the keys specified in the file.  Then use integrator to add this view as a secondary object.  If you are looking to do anything other then simple arithmetic or string manipulation this is the only workaround.  

This may not have good performance implications so enter in at your own risk.

There is.  When we first started, we did not have support for SQL derived logical fields.  They were coded as java methods.  Then when we built Integrator we added support for SQL based logical expressions and have not taken the time to retrofit it to the earliest objects.  We are trying to address them as we make our way through the objects to uplift the UI to take advantage of newer features.

Otto

thanks.  I did something similar and it works.  It is strange that a created "calculated" field can be subsetting, but one supplied by INFOR cannot.  There must be some explaination.
