    it’s a common and recommended approach in Dynamics 365 plugin development. Just make sure your early-bound classes are generated using the CrmSvcUtil or Power Platform Tools. and you don’t need to call service.Update()—just modify the Target entity.

    if (context.InputParameters.Contains("Target") && context.InputParameters["Target"] is Entity)
{
    Entity target = (Entity)context.InputParameters["Target"];

    // Early bound example
    var entity = target.ToEntity<new_account>(); // Replace with your entity type
    entity.new_customfield = "Updated Value";    // Set your field
    target = entity.ToEntity<Entity>();          // Update the target with modified values
}

    It has worked without adding the last line 
    this line not necessary 
    target = entity.ToEntity<Entity>();          // Update the target with modified values
    thanks anyway
