    Hi,

    How do you set the value of the field ? If you are setting using JS then try to set setSubmitMode= "always" for   attributes which are read-only in the onsave method using javascript.

    Xrm.Page.getAttribute("FieldName").setSubmitMode("always");

    Hi Dinesh,

    Though you are updating a reception entity the plugin doesn't knmow what to update.

    in short you dont have initialize the entity again.

    if(context.InputParameters.Contains("Target") && context.InputParameters["Target"] is Entity)

    {

    Entity entity = (Entity)context.InputParameters["Target"];  // this is the entity on which your plugin is running so use it.

    if (entity.LogicalName == "new_receptionmanagementsystem")

    {

    // Entity reception = new Entity("new_receptionmanagementsystem"); // no need of this line you have the "entity" object already

    entity ["new_welcomenote"] = "New one is coming to meet you";  

    service.Update(entity);

    }
