Display the Secondary Fields from a Base Object in the Child Tab

To display the secondary fields from a Base Object (BO) in the child tab in IDD, use the

Part Of Primary Object

child type while creating the child subject area (SA) in the IDD Configuration Manager.

You must configure the IDD configuration file (

IDDConfig.xml

) to display the secondary fields from a BO in the child tab.

For the following example, in the hub console you must create a BO

C_EMPLOYEE

with four columns:

EMP_ID

EMP_NAME

STATE

, and

COUNTRY

, also parent SA

Employee

and Child SA

EmpDetails

The following code snippet displays the

EMP_NAME

(which is a secondary field) in the

EmpDetails

child tab.

            <subjectArea displayName="Employee" name="Employee" showXREF="false">
