Relationships with external tables

Posted by ByronB on 27-Jul-2015 06:39

Hi

So I have created some external tables and mapped them within RB. One issue I am facing is that I cant create a 1:M relationship between RB object and external object, the only two options available in the dropdown are:

External Object 1:1 RB Object

External Object 1:M RB Object

I need to have either M:M or External Object M:1 RB Object

Any specific reason why thos two relationship types are not available?

Hi Byron,

looks like this is expected behavior when using External tables. Relationships involving external objects support only below scenarios:

1. 1-1 or 1-N cardinality when establishing a relationship between an external object and another external object or a Rollbase Native object.

2. 1-1 or N-1 cardinality when establishing a relationship between a Rollbase Native object and an external object.

Refer below documentation URL for more information:

Mani.
