Cannot Import ... The related entity has already been configured with a cascading or parental relationship. Select a different relationship type.

Posted on by Cyclefitness

I am attempting to import a solution into a Dynamics 365 Online environment and am getting the error:

Entity: X is parented to Entity with id: 56be688f-8264-429a-bf03-e866c0b37317. Cannot create another parental relation with Entity: Y

 I have checked Entity X's N:1 relationships and there is only one parental.  I do not understand why this is happening.  And why would I be able to configure it that way and then it fails on import.  Seems a little late in the game.

    Hi Deb,

     in the target environment, there is, probably, a parental relationship already. If you wanted to import a solution that defines another parental relationship for the same "child" entity, you may have to reconfigure the original one(directly in the target environment) to be "referential", for example.
