Why is a field required on the layout?

Hi,

I am wanting to use CustomFieldMapping both for speed and because my field names do not match.

I am just wondering why I am required to have one field still on the layouts that I create in GoZyncMobile?

I have run into an issue, in that for some of my tables I literally have 0 fields that have the same name in my hosted and mobile databases - how can I work around this without renaming fields or adding new ones to both sides?

Is there a way to get the sync working with blank layouts?

Thanks,

Paul.

Hi Paul. We do require at least one field with matching names on the gzm_ and gzh_ layouts, even when you're using custom field mapping. You can make a dummy field for this purpose. I apologize for that inconvenience. HTH... Jeff

Hi Jeff,

Thanks for the response, was hoping for a more elegant work around but this will work.

Cheers,
