Dual Write: cannot update customers from Sales to F&O

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 35

Hello everybody,

I am not able to update customer information in Sales when Dual Write is enabled.

The scenario is the following:

  1. Creation of a new customer in Sales > Export vs F&O through dual write is OK
  2. Update info of the customer in Sales (es: update Customer name, address, email contact...) > Blocking error: "

    Unable to write to Finance and Operations apps due to following error(s): {"Write failed for entity Customers V3 with unknown exception - Cannot create a record in Customers (CustTable). Customer account: Customer test 989, test 989.\nThe record already exists."} Please rectify your data and try again. If issue persists after multiple retries, please contact your system administrator.

It seems the update action in Sales is triggering the insert of a new record in the Customer V3 F&O entity, instead of update the existing record.
Looks like the issue is in the table keys, but I am using the standard Dual Write Customers V3 (accounts) map, and the Dual Write integration key looks good as well:

    Well the answer was in fact quite simple... due to a bug in one of our customization in the CRM, the CustomerAccount changed every time the account was updated, and then the synch with F&O through Dual Write was impossible.

    Once the bug as fixed on CRM side, the update worked as expected.

    Hi partner,

    Please check the document around customers:

    docs.microsoft.com/.../enable-entity-map

    Have you added filters to the company?
