Syncing a layout with fields from other tables

[[email protected]]

Hi there

I'm finding that when I need to Sync a layout including fields from other tables, the Sync invariably fails.

My solution so far has been to create a Calculated field inside that native table that looks up to the other table in order to find the value.

Is this issue one that is commonly encountered?

Thanks as always

Hi Oli - MirrorSync does not sync related items on a layout. It shouldn't fail though, it should simply ignore those related fields. If you want to try it again and then submit a bug report (by clicking 'report a problem' on the MirrorSync launch page), that will send me the log and I can troubleshoot.

 

It should work OK to create a calculation field and sync that, although obviously we can't write back to a calculation field. You'll need the most recent version of MirrorSync (2.204) for this feature; prior versions did not support calc fields.

Thanks for the clarification, Jesse.
