What is the sf_model_vrs_name column for?

To add, it could be that the Creation steps were completed before setting the model version description. Otherwise the sf_model_info record should contain that name.

Hi Mark,

Thanks for your explanation, this directly answers my underlying question. I understand the principle of timestamp but we still use (disguised) application versions in our final product to release associated release notes.

With the SF action "Generate definition" based on database, the SF will always create a new model version in the detail tab "Model version" based on the timestamp. By filling the description with the following application version number I had hoped that this would be picked up in the upgrade script of the SF action "Execute source code" and specifically in the last insert statement

 

/* INSERT MODEL INFO INTO THE SF_MODEL_INFO TABLE */

insert into sf_model_info
   (       
      sf_server,               
      sf_database,             
      sf_model,                
      sf_branch,               
      sf_model_vrs,         
      sf_model_vrs_name,
      previous_branch,         
      previous_model_vrs,   
      generated_by_user,       
      generated_on_date,       
      created_by_user,         
      created_on_date         
   )
   values (

 

It is now clear to me that I can capture this for source code generation in the "model_vrs_name" column of the "model_settings" entity.
