CustomFields
Create, Update and Query the Custom Fields in TSheets.
Table Specific Information
Select
Query the CustomFields table. The connector will use the QuickBooks Time API to process WHERE clause conditions built with the following columns and operators. The rest of the filter is executed client side within the connector.
- Id supports the '=,IN'
- Active supports the '='
- AppliesTo supports the '='
- Type supports the '='
- LastModified supports the '<,<=,>,>='
- SupplementalData supports the '='
For example, the following queries are processed server side:
SELECT * FROM CustomFields SELECT * FROM CustomFields WHERE Id = 24145
Insert
Insert can be executed by specifying Name, Required, Active, AppliesTo, Type, ShowToAll and ShortCode column. The columns that are not required can be inserted optionally. Following is an example of how to insert into this table
INSERT INTO CustomFields (Name, Required, Active, AppliesTo, Type, ShowToAll, ShortCode) VALUES ('Test', true, true, 'timesheet', 'managed-list', true, 'cstm')
Update
Update can be executed by specifying the Id in the WHERE Clause. The columns that are not read-only can be Updated.
For example:
UPDATE CustomFields SET Name = 'Updated name' WHERE Id = '1140410'
