Hi,

I have added Invoice_amount column from AP_Invoices_all table and trying to add Invoice_amount column from AP_Invoice_Distributuons_All table in Business view.

After adding Invoice_Amount column from second table in BV Column Name already exists message showing.

Trying to rename the column name, getting below pop up. Can i proceed to continue? any impact to existing column?

@KKR - Did you rename both INVOICE_AMOUNT columns? If so, some dashboards using the first INVOICE_AMOUNT column may break. Click the 'show dependencies' to view how many dashboards rely on the name.

As a tip, every time you save your business schema, Incorta maintains the version. Check out the settings of your business schema. This way, if you make a change and find it breaks dependencies, you can always revert back to the working version.
