Hi Friends,
 
I am getting a sync error during my build and sync of ProjectCategoryEntity.ProjAX(Extension of standard entity ProjectCategoryEntity).
 
This is the error i am getting during build and sync of my project.I tried to build all models and sync then it is working fine but during project sync i am getting the error.I have also tried to delete one of the custom fields added to this entity and tried to regenerate staging table but still getting the same errors.Please let me know your inputs.Thank you.

    Can you try deleting the data in staging  from SSMS? 
     
    And are you getting this error when doing import also?
