Replace Data Examples
SuiteBundler uses the following rules when you update a bundle that contains record data with parent-child relationships and use the Replace Data option:
-
Relationships removed in the source account are also removed in the target account.
-
Relationships in the target account that include non-bundle custom records are overwritten, and the non-bundle records are removed.
-
If you delete a parent record in the source account, SuiteBundler also removes the parent record and any relationship to child records in the target account.
-
SuiteBundler adds any new records and the associated parent-child relationships added in the source account to the target account.
-
SuiteBundler removes any new target account records and parent-child relationships for the custom record type.
The examples in this section assume that the source bundle has already been installed one time in the target account.
The following table includes bundle update examples for the Replace Data update option:
