7.5 lookup not generating SeedProperty bindingYour last visit to this thread was on 1/1/1970 12:00:00 AM

We're having an issue in 7.5 with a customization that works fine in 7.2 (customer portal). We have a custom extension table on the Ticket entity called Ticket_Addon; Ticket_Addon contains a relationship to another custom entity called Configuration. Configuration has links/relationships to Account and Product. In 7.2, there is a lookup on the AddPortalTicket screen that displays information from the Configuration table based on the Account of the logged in user. So, it's a lookup bound to the MainEntity.TicketAddon.Configuration entity with a SeedProperty of Account.Id.

I have mapped every property in 7.5 the same as in 7.2, but 7.5 refuses to work. I ditched everything on a test system, started with the 7.5 eval database and applied only what customization was needed to get to this point, and 7.5 still will not display this lookup correctly. First try to view the lookup displays nothing, even though the Initialize Lookup property is set to True. If I click Search, an empty result set returns and the text "Results 1 - NaN" appears in the top right where the count would be. At this point, the Application event log receives an SData error (Event Id: 0, Source = Sage.SData.Service, Message = "The specified named query, 'ctl00_MainContent_AddPortalTicket_lueConfig' does not exist."), though I do not have any SData information modified or changed. Then, if I refresh the Add Ticket page in the browser and try to search in the lookup again, it will return all values in the Configuration table.

If I look at the generated code in AddPortalTicket.ascx, it seems that in 7.5 the App Architect is not generating anything in the OnAddEntityBindings() method for the SeedProperty of the lookup. In 7.2, there is both a lueConfig.LookupResultValue and a lueConfig.SeedValue binding, but 7.5 only produces the former. If I manually add the SeedValue binding to AddPortalTicket, the result is encouraging - the lookup will still not work at first load of the page, but if I refresh the page and search again it then shows the proper data with the Account.Id constraining the results.

Has anyone seen any oddity like this in 7.5? I can't figure out what, if anything, I've done wrong or differently in 7.5. I'm slated to take the 7.5 developer class at Sage in December, but I'd really like to figure this one out sooner than that. Any help would be appreciated.

This is not happening for me. Just yesterday even I added some Lookups using the seed properties and all worked fine. In your system, I assume groups are working ok? Right? You don't see anything similar there?

Groups are working fine, with the possible exception of date formats not displaying as expected. I don't see any abnormality besides this lookup behavior. The system is an upgraded 7.2->7.5 system, but I haven't seen any odd behavior elsewhere in the thick client, the admin tools, or the other components of the web.

Had a conf. call this AM with someone at Sage to show them the odd behavior. They have our custom entity bundle and will be trying to duplicate the issue, so I'll update here in case a resolution arrives. Meanwhile, if anyone has any useful contributions, I'd love to hear them!
