This question is related to Custom Repository Implementation

I have created a custom repo

public interface CustomTransactionRepo<TEntity> {
    List<TEntity> basicSearch(String searchQuery, String searchColumn, Class<TEntity> collectionType);
}

Its implementation:

@Repository
public class CustomTransactionRepoImpl<TEntity> implements CustomTransactionRepo<TEntity> {

    @Autowired
    private MongoTemplate mongoTemplate;

    @Override
    public List<TEntity> basicSearch(String searchQuery, String searchColumn, Class<TEntity> en) {
        var query = new Query();
        var criteria = new ArrayList<Criteria>();
        if (StringUtils.isNotEmpty(searchQuery)) {
            criteria.add(Criteria.where(searchColumn)
                                 .regex(searchQuery, "i"));
        }
        query.addCriteria(new Criteria().andOperator(criteria.toArray(new Criteria[0])));

        var simRecords = mongoTemplate.find(query, en);
        return simRecords;
    }
}

I have a BaseJPA repo that extends my CustomRepo (CustomTransactionRepo) and MongoRepository

@NoRepositoryBean
public interface BaseJpaRepo<TEntity> extends CustomTransactionRepo<TEntity>, MongoRepository<TEntity, String> {
}

and finally MyRepository (SimRecordRepository) that just only need to extend BaseJpaRepo

@Repository
public interface SimRecordRepository extends BaseJpaRepo<SimRecord> {
    
}

and I am calling this repo from my service layer:

@Service
public class TransactionServiceImpl implements TransactionService {

    @Autowired
    private SimRecordRepository repo;

    @Override
    public List<SimRecord> basicSearch(String searchQuery, String searchColumn) {
        return repo.basicSearch(searchQuery, searchColumn, SimRecord.class);
    }
}

My Entity SimRecord:

@Document(collection = "sim_record")
public class SimRecord {
    private String id;
    private String system;
    private String entity;
    @Field("business_ref")
    private String businessRef;
    private String recordSetId;
    private Object payload;
    private String payloadType;
    private Object canonical;
    private String canonicalType;
    private String processingStatus;
    private String recordStatus;
    private String resultType;
    private String classValue;
// Getters and Setters

Now while running the build i am getting the exception:

org.springframework.data.mapping.PropertyReferenceException: No property 'basicSearch' found for type 'SimRecord'

I am unsure what else need to done.

What i expected was that the i should be able to call the method basicSarch() but instead got that propertyReference Exception
