  firstName?: string;
  lastName?: string;
  phone?: string;
  city?: string;
}) {
  const { data: { recordId } } = await CustomersLayout.findOne({ query: { myPrimaryKey: myPrimaryKey } });

  // Only update fields that were provided
  const fieldData: any = {};
  if (updates.firstName) fieldData.firstName = updates.firstName;
  if (updates.lastName) fieldData.lastName = updates.lastName;
  if (updates.phone) fieldData.phone = updates.phone;

import customParseFormat from "dayjs/plugin/customParseFormat";
dayjs.extend(customParseFormat);

export const ZCustomers = ZCustomers_generated.omit({ active: true }).extend({
  active: z.coerce.boolean(),

// if you have portals
type TOrders = {
  "Orders::orderId": string;
  "Orders::orderDate": string;
  "Orders::orderTotal": number;
};

type TPortals = {
  orders: TOrders; // key is based on the portal object name
};
