Hi,

I am developing a plugin which will override the existing behaviour of Qualify leads, for that I am running a plugin on the PreValidation event. However, I am getting an error on, systemService.Update(resp.Entity);

Error : Entity Id must be specified for Update

//initialize form
                    traceService.Trace("QualifyLeads: Account Creation started");
                    InitializeFromRequest req = new InitializeFromRequest();
                    //set the source entity
                    req.EntityMoniker = new EntityReference(LogicalName, LeadId);
                    req.TargetEntityName = "account";
                    req.TargetFieldType = TargetFieldType.All;

                    InitializeFromResponse resp = (InitializeFromResponse)systemService.Execute(req);

                    systemService.Update(resp.Entity);
                    traceService.Trace("QualifyLeads: Account Created");

Am I missing anything ?

Entity Id what i am getting in return is {00000 000000 0000000}

Guid has that format because the record you initialize using InitializeFrom message is not created yet - you have it in code only.

Guid guid = orgService.Create(resp.Entity);

I was using the wrong method.
