Metadata FieldsThe fields XML files are XML files that describe all the fields and datapaths of their respective entity (i.e. the accountsreceivable.xml describes the AccountReceivable entity). By including these fields in these XML files, we are stating that the restrictions isEditable, isViewable, and isMandatory can be applied to them, and can be configured in the Security Profiles. In order to apply the restrictions at a field, the field's filename should be included in entities metadata file in the corresponding entity's <metadatafile> tag. |
