    The information you provided is not enough but anyway you can add the field to your solution and try again, this field may be needed by the lookup because of the configured mapping in the lookup relation.

    When you are adding lookup (relationship) from entity a to entity b. Both entity should be in the solution because of both of those entities has a new relationship.

    Hi ,

    If my understanding is correct there is some dependent field is missing for your  entity where "test_sourceidname " field is available , so first go to your unmanaged solution and then removed the entity from unmanaged solution and then add entity again. Make sure while adding entity in unmanaged solution you will get a window where you need to select "Add All Asset" and select Metadata . After that you will get another popup  related " required component "  select yes I want to add all require component .

    Once you add your entity in unmanaged  solution then export again managed solution and try to import again.

    Hope this helps .

    You need to add all the dependent components, you can select that field and click on show dependency, which will list out all the dependent field for your company look and then you can add them to your solution.

    Rajalax,

    Did you find a solution to this issue? I'm getting the same error with these name fields related to lookups.

    It seems, test_sourceidname field also new and it is not in target environment.

    Add required components while doing export of solution and then import.

    I think the "idname" field, is a field that is created behind the scenes for lookup fields by the system - so you can't add it to the solution as you can't select in anywhere.

    E.g. I have field name sem_coachid which is a lookup field in my solution:

    3125.Capture2.PNG

    When I try to export the solution I get an error saying that sem_coachidname is missing:

    3125.Capture2.PNG

    This is not a field you can see anywhere, so I believe that is a field created in the background by the system when you create a lookup field. E.g. there's no display name. 

    So the question is, how do you add that to a solution?

    Just came across this issue ourselves. What I ended up doing was using the solution packager to pull apart an export with just this entity in it. I couldn't find that attribute (presumably because it's completely virtual), but I did find it referenced in several views. The views were querying something like this "<condition attribute='pre_blahidname' operator='like' value='Test%' />", what we did was switch these views to use a link to the related entity and query on its primary attribute from there. That way the condition on the virtual attribute goes away.

    Microsoft came up with a fix that were used in our orgs. 

    If someone experience this refer to Support request ID 2107160050000204. They came up with a fix that will be rolled out to all orgs at a later point.
