Updating a custom field in Entitlement from a plugin

Hi

I have a plugin in C# that updates Entities during the creation process. This is working just fine except for Entitlements.

I update a custom field on the Entitlement:

entity.Attributes[fieldName] = "some value";

_dynamicsOrganizationService.Update(entity);

This throws the following error:

"You can't deactivate an entitlement when it's in the draft state."

I don't get it! The statecode and statuscode are both 0 ("Draft")

So for some reason Dynamics thinks I am trying to deactivate the entitlement entity when I am updating it.

Any help on this matter i appreciated!

Hi,

You should create new object of Entity and then use this object to pass in service.update

Some like this

Entity entitlementObject=new Entity("Entitlement Entity Schema Name");

entitlementObject.Id=Entitlement Record ID;

entitlementObject.Attributes[fieldName] = "some value";

_dynamicsOrganizationService.Update(entitlementObject);

Let me know if it works.
