Goal: Technical
Developer: Igor Pojzl
Sponsor: Cloudempiere
Description:
The ColumnSQL used to define virtual columns can be overwritten in the Field definition:
Usage and Impact of the different options for Virtual Columns:
| ColumnSQL in AD_Column | ColumnSQL in AD_Field | Type | Master | Grid | PO.get | Find | Report |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| no prefix | null | Virtual | Y | Y | Y - can impact the database heavily.
N - after the implementation of IDEMPIERE-5126 |
Y | Y |
| @SQL= | null | Virtual UI | Y | just on actual row | N | N | N |
| @SQLFIND= | null | Virtual Find | N | N | N | Y | Y |
| null | no prefix | Virtual in Field | Y | Y | N | N | N |
| @SQLFIND= | no prefix | Virtual Find in Column, Virtual in Field | Y | Y | N | Y | Y |
As shown in the table above, the best combination is to define a virtual search column at Column level and a normal (no prefix) virtual column at Field level. This kind of configuration doesn't impact the performance of PO.get and is searchable, shown properly in reports, master and grid mode.
