The id in pet should be aliased to 'petid' , because id is coming
from both entities there is a conflict
<entity name="owners" pk="id"
query="select id,first_name,last_name FROM owners"
transformer="TemplateTransformer">
<field column="comboId" template="owners-${owners.id}"/>
<field column="id" />
<field column="first_name" name="userName"/>
<field column="last_name" name="userName"/>
<entity name="pets"
query="SELECT id,name,birth_date,type_id FROM pets WHERE
owner_id='${owners.id}'"
parentDeltaQuery="SELECT id FROM owners WHERE
id=${pets.owner_id}">
<field column="id" name="petid"/>
<field column="name" name="name"/>
<field column="birth_date" name="birthDate"/>
</entity>
</entity>
