Hi,

This error usually occurs when the underlying table or data source in your custom data entity isn’t initialized properly at runtime, often because the DictTable or DictDataEntity object can’t resolve the metadata.
Here are a few things to check:

Build + Sync:
Make sure you've done a full build of the project and run a database synchronization after adding the entity.

Staging Table:
Check if the Staging table is correctly generated and has all required fields. If it's missing, regenerate it by right-clicking the entity and selecting "Regenerate staging table".

Data Source Issues:
The primary data source (e.g., table or view) used in the entity may not be properly compiled or synced. Check that the AVACartTransStockQty table exists and is accessible.

If the problem persists, try exporting and re-importing the entity or recreating it from scratch to rule out corrupted metadata.

'This question to the finance forum it belongs to the general integration forum, I am unable to moderate if someone should shift this that would be good'

If this helps, please mark as answer.
Thanks,
Zain

The system is trying to build a dictionary (Dict) object* for your custom data entity (AVACartTransStockQtyEntity). This error typically arises when: The underlying table or data source of the entity is missing or not compiled properly.

Thanks, Ramesh
