Hi,

I have duplicated the GeneralJournalAccountEntryEntity as I need only few new and selective fields. But while exporting i get the following error

  

I have even checked if the staging has staging index, and it has. Please help me in resolving this.

    Hi Harshal, Have you duplicated staging table as well and changed data entity index? If you haven't duplicate staging table then try and update in data entity.

    Also, you can use below SQL script to check if there is duplicate records in data entity or staging table. In Group by fields, add index fields. If it returns greater than 1 for any record then there are duplicate records. You can modify the script to find duplicate records then.

    SELECT TOP 1 COUNT(RECID) AS KEYCOUNT 
    FROM SALESPOSTEDSALESPRICEJOURNALLINEENTITY
    GROUP BY TRADEAGREEMENTJOURNALNUMBER,LINENUMBER,DATAAREAID

    Hi Mohit,

    I ran the SQL scripts for both the enity and staging, it return 1. Also I deleted the staging, duplicated the same and added it in Entity, but got the same error. Any other suggestions please ?

    I wasn't including the primary key while exporting. After I added it, I was able to export the data successfullly.
