    How to find that a field is not supported in Salesforce Metadata API?

    Posted by Nitish on April 30, 2016 at 4:55 PM

    I have the Order Status field in the Order. Object file defined simply as follows:

    <fields>
    <fullName>Status</fullName>
    <picklist>
    <picklistValues>
    <fullName>Draft</fullName>
    <default>false</default>
    </picklistValues>
    <picklistValues>
    <fullName>Activated</fullName>
    <default>false</default>
    </picklistValues>
    </picklist>
    <trackHistory>true</trackHistory>
    <type>Picklist</type>
    </fields>

    I get the error:

    Order.object: This standard picklist field not supported in metadata API
