Update set and delete table

[ideamax]

Hi,

I want to delete a table and capture the changes in an update set so that i can move these changes to other instance.
I tried do the same but the delete entries for the table are not getting captured in the update set.

Is this the expected behaviour?

Thanks.

Update sets are mostly meant for configuration, therefore, on most tables they do not track data changes such as the deletion of records. It should, however, track the deletion of the table itself.

From my experience deletion of tables (not data) is iffy at best, as well as fields on the form/table. The latter ones usually get Skipped and if I don't catch it, I have to do it manually.

Yes, deletion of tables should be avoided if at all possible...especially established tables. If it is a custom table that was fairly recently introduced and nothing really references it, the update set deletion will probably be fine. However, if other parts of the system have started integrating with that table in any way your results may definitely vary.

Deletion of a table is not getting captured in the update set. I create a new table, added a few fields on the table and then deleted the table. The delete customer update did not get capture in the update set. I tried it in demo as well but there also it does not work.

Please advise what should i do?
Thanks.
