    Hi,

    You can try the same using console app and console App will read data from Excel.

    And you add your business need in console app.

    Other way you can try by adding plugin in Prevalidation on abc entity and check the contacts record if does not exists then create it.

    Thanks,
    Pradeep.

    Hi,

    It can not be achieved by just importing the abc entity record using OOB Import wizard-

    You would first need to Import Contact file in Dynamics then import abc entity record file because OOn Import wizard will  not create new record if lookup record is missing.

    Please mark my answer verified if this is helpful!
