The system automatically validates field selections when you configure report fields to ensure compatibility and prevent code generation errors.
Field validation checks include:
- Field compatibility: Verifies that selected fields exist in the specified tables and are accessible.
- Data type validation: Ensures field data types are compatible with the specified field format.
- Usage validation: Confirms that field usage assignments (output, filter, sorting, request filter) are appropriate for the field type.
- Relationship validation: Checks that fields used in table relationships are properly configured.
[!NOTEI]
If validation errors are detected, the system displays error messages indicating which fields have issues and what corrections are needed.
