I have an SDF project that includes the object XML for a saved search that references a bunch of SPS Commerce fields as well as 2 SPS custom records for Package and Package Content records. SDF won’t allow me to deploy the project since it is missing the dependencies for the 2 custom records and I can’t download those objects into the SDF project because they are locked. How does one go about doing this other than removing the object XML that references those custom records?

manually add those objects/fields to the

<dependencies>

section of

manifest.xml

. SDF will check to make sure those objects already exist in the target environment before deploying and fail if they do not exist.

<manifest projecttype="ACCOUNTCUSTOMIZATION">
  <projectname>okta</projectname>
  <frameworkversion>1.0</frameworkversion>
  <dependencies>
    <features>
      <feature required="true">ADVANCEDPRINTING</feature>
      <feature required="true">SERVERSIDESCRIPTING</feature>
      <feature required="false">CREATESUITEBUNDLES</feature>
      <feature required="false">CRM</feature>
      <feature required="true">WORKFLOW</feature>
    </features>
    <objects>
      <object>custbody_ce_type</object>
      <object>custbody_opportunity_close_date</object>
    </objects>
  </dependencies>
</manifest>

Thanks! I will try that.
