you need to instantiate first an IOrganizationService

IOrganizationServiceFactory serviceFactory = (IOrganizationServiceFactory)serviceProvider.GetService(typeof(IOrganizationServiceFactory)); IOrganizationService service = serviceFactory.CreateOrganizationService(context.UserId);

and after create the record

Entity newAccount = new Entity("account"); newAccount["name"] = "TEST"; service.Create(newAccount);

Entity goods = new Entity("goods");

goods .Attributes.Add("number", formNumber);

goods .Attributes.Add("comment", "");

goods .Attributes.Add("ownerid", owner);

try

{

Guid guid = Service.Create(goods);

}

catch (Exception e)

{

throw new InvalidPluginExecutionException("errors message\r\n" + e.Message, e);

}
