Symptoms

When saving a value in a dot-walked list type field. The value does not save in the list type field when the record is updated.

Release

All releases

List type fields cannot be dot-walked

Instead of using a list type field. Use a reference type, as dot-walking is allowed.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a list type field on the task table

2. Navigate to the "idea" table (Requires Project Portfolio Suite with Financials plugin)

3. Configure the form layout of a Idea record.

Under "available" find "parent" and expand this field. Add your custom list type field you created on the task table.

4. Save the form layout and add a value in your list type field

5. Notice that the value is not stored in the list type field.
