    About this task

    ERP Data Hub scans the system of record for the ERP model to find all available fields that you can add to a remote table. You can view all available fields from the ERP system in the ERP model. Using the Manage fields modal to add available columns from the ERP system to a remote table automatically creates them in the remote table.

    If you don't see the fields that you want to add to the remote table, you must first add them to the model. For more information, see Choose output parameters for an ERP model.

    The connected ERP model, which is defined on the remote table Details tab, controls the available fields on the remote table. If you change the ERP model for a remote table, the available fields change as well.

    Note:
    You can't edit field names in remote tables, but you can add a new label for a field.
