Export Dependencies for a managed solution

Posted on by 35

I have a solution that I want to export as a managed solution. One of my custom entities in my solution has a field to reference system users. That field has a Data Type of Lookup and a Target Record Type of User:

Defining this field resulted in Dynamics 365 adding the User entity to the entity list of my solution:

Now when I go to export my solution, I get the following warning:

"The following components are missing from your solution. Import will fail if these components don't exist already in the target Microsoft Dynamics 365 organization. To add the missing components to your solution, cancel import, open the solution, and click the Add Required Components button."

My solution has no dependency on these and I do not want to add them to my solution. I also do not want to enforce on any Dynamics instances that they have these components before importing my solution.

How can I just have a simple dependency on user without forcing it to bring in all of these other components?

    Hi,

    Seems you can't do anything as it's system entity dependency and you have to include those component as it's required by system.
