View Entity-Is it possible to build a combination field?

Hello,

 

It is desirable to sort many party lists with names. Unfortunately, party
names can be either groupName, or a combination of first, and last names
which makes sorting difficult. Is it possible to build a view entity that
has a name field

partyName = isgroup ? groupName : lastName + ", " + firstName;

 

Thanks in advance,

Vinay Agarwal

Hi Vinay,

Maybe doing it with code in a dynamic view entity (proxy for the Party entity).

Regards,

Alexandre Gomes
