How do I export the form order as a solution for an Entity in CRM?

Posted on by 165

I have 2 environments. In both environments the Opportunity Product entity has 2 main forms. In our dev environment they are ordered such that Form A comes before Form B. 

 

However when making updates to Form A in dev, and then deploying them I discovered that someone changed the order of the forms in our 2nd environment such that Form B comes before Form A, making our environments inconsistent.

Is there any way to create a solution to export the form order for this entity from 1st environment to the 2nd environment? 

I've done this before for Business Process Flow Order... there I had to export all of the process flows in that scenario to maintain their order between environments. I tried that here by exporting both forms but that didn't work. Any help or advice would be appreciated!

    Hi,

    Are you importing managed solution?

    Ideally this is happen when your managed solution entity become unmanaged due to directly changes on top of managed entity.

    Could you please try to remove the entity from your unmanaged solution and add entity again selecting all asset and metadata. After that change the form order and export solution again.

    If it's does not resolved , I think you need to order manually.

    Try to  import new solution.

    Hi,

    Maybe in your 2nd environment those form is unmanaged so you cannot update the form order?
