I'd like to have a "Unique" property for a BO attribute instead of coding a rule to do that.
It can also be associated to a specific error message to display if the value already exist in the BO.

Re: Unique attribute
Yes, very useful.
Re: Unique attribute
Outside of AwareIM, in your database tool, can you create a unique index on that column in the database? I am guessing that AwareIM does not check for those in terms of it's business logic.
However, as you say, a Unique attribute could allow AwareIM itself to create a unique index.

I'm curious why you are opposed to having a rule do this along with REPORT ERRORI'd like to have a "Unique" property for a BO attribute instead of coding a rule to do that.

Re: Unique attribute
I'm guessing that it's because it's an extra step, the rule is minorly complicated (ie uses “this”) and if you have loads of them then it is another thing to do/forget/testtford wrote: ↑Tue Dec 03, 2019 6:50 pmI'm curious why you are opposed to having a rule do this along with REPORT ERRORI'd like to have a "Unique" property for a BO attribute instead of coding a rule to do that.
