Hi,
We are on premise 2016 Dynamics 365. We have an issue where we are unable to move the business process on to the next stage. It will not set as active, as below;

You can set them via the SDK within a console application. You'd need to retrieve the associated BPF record to your entity and then set the stageid to the coresponding stage name. Something like the snippet below :

try

if (!crmSvc.IsReady)
throw new Exception($"Unable to connect to CRM Organization Error: {crmSvc.LastCrmError} \n {crmSvc.LastCrmException}");
// 1. Retrieve the Active Business Process Instance set against the records
RetrieveProcessInstancesRequest retrieveProcessInstancesRequest = new RetrieveProcessInstancesRequest
{
EntityId = recordToFixId,
EntityLogicalName = recordToFixEntityName
};
RetrieveProcessInstancesResponse retrieveProcessInstancesResponse =
(RetrieveProcessInstancesResponse)crmSvc.Execute(retrieveProcessInstancesRequest);
Guid activeProcessInstaceId = new Guid(retrieveProcessInstancesResponse.Processes.Entities[0].Id.ToString());
Console.WriteLine("Active Process stage is: " + retrieveProcessInstancesResponse.Processes.Entities[0].Attributes["processstageid"].ToString());
EntityReference bpfReference =

Entity processEntity = crmSvc.Retrieve(businessProcessFlowName, activeProcessInstaceId, new ColumnSet(true));
processEntity["activestageid"] = new EntityReference("processstage", stageToSetId);
crmSvc.Update(processEntity);
Console.Read();
}
}
catch (Exception ex)

Console.WriteLine(ex.Message);

}
hope this helps

Hey,
Firstly, thank you so much for helping me.
They do not appear to match as would expect, how can I resolve this?
Can you check the stageid and the stagename against the record and see if there is any mismatch there ?
Hello,
Do you have any logic around the business process flow (JavaScript, Plug-ins, etc.) ? If yes - if you disable them does it work?
I've seen this type of behavior in the past also when the stageid and the stagename on the form were not set correctly (stageid belonged to the wrong stagename of the business process flow) - this in generally was caused by custom javascript / plugins
Hope this helps,
Radu
