Can't delete custom Entity because of dependency

Posted on by 159

Hello,

I'm trying to delete a custom entity from a solution but I can't . I have a weird issue.( See below ) .  There are no lookup fields on the form  left , no associated grids.  Where can I find problematic components to remove?  Thanks.

    First of all, before you can delete a custom entity, you need to remove the dependencies that exist in other solution components. For example, if another entity has a lookup field on a form that uses that custom entity, you must first remove that field from the form before you can delete the custom entity. This also applies to views defined for other entities that contain references to this entity. If you try to delete an entity and a dependency is found, the deletion is not allowed. Select Show Dependencies from the menu bar to  identify the dependencies that need to be removed before you can remove  the entity.
