Dear all,

I need to create new index on WEB LNUI with CDF field, but I don't know about method to add it.

Could you please to advise me?

CDF handling overview
In some areas of the application there is a requirement to add easy and for free Customer Defined Fields. This fields solve the business requirements of (a group of) customers, but their need is not generic enough for deployment in the standard. Free Customer Defined Fields could help a customer to store his specific data requirements without having to customize the system. The information in the CDFs are, when possible, carried forward through the business process. For instance when customer specific data is stored on the requisition header it should be carried forward when the requisition is turned into a purchase order and finally into an invoice.

Restrictions

The following restrictions on CDFs are imposed:

There can not be references on a CDF
There can not be permissions on a CDF
There can not be indexes on a CDF
It is not possible to have an array column defined as CDF
A CDF can not be defined as a MLF

Hi bdittmar,

Thank you for explaination content about CDF field for me.

Thank you very much,

With a table extension (as of 10.5) you can create a custom index on a CDF field, although a custom index cannot be linked to a session yet. But you can order the data on the CDF with setting a filter.

Note that the information about restrictions on CDFs is outdated.
