Customize Attribute List Data

Partial project attribute's list data is defined using Static data or Groovy script, but if necessary we can change it for customer implementation.

Step-by-step guide

Prepare SQL script as necessary and execute on FlexDeploy database.

Following example is for EBS projects, AOL object type and TYPE attribute list data. Note FD_OBJECT_TYPE_OVERRIDES_EBS and AOL_TYPE_LISTDATA for DB Properties data. Basically FD_OBJECT_TYPE_OVERRIDES_<Project Type> and <Object Type>_<Attribute Type Code>_LISTDATA.

Other options are DEFAULTSSCRIPT and VALIDATORSCRIPT, which also can be tweaked using same mechanism.

You can either wait for 10 minutes for changes to take effect or work with your Administrator to clear cache, see Admin Operations.

Once you prepare Groovy script, each ' needs to be replaced with '' in SQL statement.

-- make sure to change DB_PROPERTIES_DATA_ID, DB_PROPERTIES_ID as appropriate.

UPDATE FD.OBJECT_ATTRIBUTE_DEF set OVERRIDE_LIST_DATA='Y' 
where object_type_id=(select object_type_id from fd.object_type where project_type='EBS' and object_type_code='AOL') and object_attribute_code='TYPE';
