Posted on by Vrushali R

I have a requirement to change the ownership of the record before it gets created. Need to set the owner as a team. I can't opt for post operation as I have workflow to create work orders which are triggered on the record creation and inherits same owner. I am trying with below code but , it is giving invalid argument exception.

I am fetching OwnerTeam details from another entity

targetEntity["ownerid"] = new EntityReference("team", OwnerTeam.Id);// this does not work

// tried below as well

EntityReference owner = new EntityReference();

owner.Id = ((EntityReference)(OwnerTeam)).Id;
owner.LogicalName = ((EntityReference)(Owner)).LogicalName;
targetEntity["ownerid"] = owner;

As its preopertaion , I ma not calling create method again. I am able to change any other field like Name in this except the Owner.

Kindly note : I can do this manually on the form, it working fine, hence do not think its security issue. The team selected is of type Owner

Register your step on pre validation.

This stage occurs before any security checks are preformed to verify that the calling or logged-on user has the correct permission to perform the intended operation.

This works but doesn't make any sense. There is no security issue. What is the difference between a change in the context in stage 20 vs stage 10? Aren't both before the operation?
