Hi, I have 2 custom entities which are connected with native N:N relationship. Can I map datas from the one entity to another, if yes how?
Thanks in advance.

The functionality you are inquiring about is available out of the box for N:1 relationships, but not for N:N relationships. You just map the fields under the properties for the relationship and then when you create a new entity from the parent entity in the relationship, the fields will automatically be mapped over.
The only way you could probably do this with N:N would be to use custom code as part of a plugin.
You can create the code using xrm (you dont have to, you can hardcode entity names).
Get the relationship by using:
EntityReference target = (EntityReference context.InputParameters["Target"];
and
Relationship relationship = (Relationship)context.InputParameters["Relationship"];<br/>EntityReferenceCollection relatedIdentities = (EntityReferenceCollection)context.InputParameters["RelatedEntities"];
Register the plugin using the Asscociate method - with no primary or secondary entity. You will have to make sure that find the right entities and relationship so your code doesnt run for all relationships made.
