Create records for mapped entities when parent form is saved

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Master Yoda 5

I have a custom parent entity named **Artist** which has a child entity named **Album** that I need to map to it. It would be an (Artist)1:M(Album) relationship in that instance.

Currently, on the artist form I have created a quick create form for adding albums to a subgrid. When I click save on the quick create form it creates the album. When user updates the "Finished" field on the Artist form and saves, I need to create an **AlbumSummary* record for each album associated with the Artist.

Im new to dynamics so not sure how to do this or if its even possible to do Out of the box.

    Hello Master Yoda, may the force be with you.

    I think that you can explore Power Automate for this requirement. Another thing that you could do is write a plugin-in in C# that triggers when the artist record is saved.

    From both options you should be able to explore all related album to the artist and then create the AlbumSummary Record as needed.

    Regards,
