If deleting a attribute, his MAXLOOKUPMAP should be deleted to.

If you add a MAXLOOKUPMAP to an attribute in the database configuration and then delete the attribute, the MAXLOOKUPMAP of the attribute remains.

 

These are the steps to recreate the problem:

1. go to the application database configuration

2. open the object Ticket and create a new attribute CXTEST

3. save the new attribute and apply the configuration changes to the database

4. then create a MAXLOOKUPMAP for the attribute CXTEST. it doesn't matter which specifications you use for the MAXLOOKUPMAX.

5. delete the attribute again and apply the configuration changes to the database

6. enter the following SQL statement into the database manager: select * from MAXLOOKUPMAP where target = 'TICKET' and TARGETATTR = 'CXTEST'.

7. you will notice that MAXLOOKUPMAP still exists, although the attribute has already been deleted.



This leads to problem when migrating objects and attributes, because the MAXLOOKUPMAP are migrated at the same time.
