Hi all,

We have a working connection between Business Central and Dyn 365 Customer Engagement.
We also added some custom fields already to the integration table mapping between customer and account.

The problem is now we need to map a field that in the CRM is of type Picklist and can have 3 values.
We tried initializing it either with blank, numeric or text value in BC but we see the same error:
"No value is set for option field "Tip Client" on table 'CRM Account' (ID 5341).

Any tips?

Thank you,
Dana

    Hello,

    I personally did not try, but this documentation may help:

    Thank you Marco,

    Do you know if it's possible to add a Multi-Select type of field in the mapping?  

    We suspect it is not supported yet

    Hello,

    Answer:

    Multi select (lookup list) type is not supported because BC does not have corresponding data type.

    Thanks.
