Allowed Origin Field Names per *_EXTRA Origin

Allowed Origin Field Names per *_EXTRA Origin

Problem

When you configure a new field in the BASIC FIELD CONFIGURATION table and select an *_EXTRA origin (e.g., PROJECT_EXTRA, PHASE_EXTRA), you may notice there’s no predefined list of valid ORIGIN FIELDNAMES available to choose from. This means you have to determine the correct fieldnames manually, which can lead to potential errors or inefficiencies.

Environment

BRF+

Reason

Without a predefined guide or list of allowed ORIGIN FIELDNAMES for each *_EXTRA origin, it’s easy to feel uncertain about selecting the right fieldname for options like PROJECT_EXTRA and PHASE_EXTRA.

Solution

Below is a list of predefined ORIGIN FIELDNAMES for each *_EXTRA origin to assist with accurate configuration:
