Not possible to import choice and lookup fields (uploading new rows)

(0) ShareShare

Anyone able to provide advice about data import to Dynamics?

Whatever I do I’m never able to import data (upload entirely new rows) together with their lookups or choice fields. It says data selection not found (both if I use name or the code version of the field).

I need to upload first new rows, than export again. Enrich the data and upload again with modified rows. Only this way it works, but there must be better approach.

Does anyone know?


Much appreciated!

    Hi there!
    Can you please give us some information about how are you trying to import data? With Excell? With SSISs'?
    I personally use Kingswaysoft, it's free for users if you don't need to schedule SSIS.
    You can manage and import data easyli in my opinion with it. (https://www.kingswaysoft.com/) You have to have installes VS Code in order to create the SSIS and manage the import/export.
