Field Mappings

Posted on by smcconnell 341

Hi Folks,

We are seeing an issue where Lookup Fields mapped during record creation are appearing as "No Name".  Microsoft fix for this is to delete the mapping and create it again.  I tested this in the default solution and it does resolve the issue.

we are using managed solutions so i deleted several of the other problematic field mappings from the default solution and then imported a solution with new field mappings, however the relationships haven't been updated with these, and no new mappings have been created.

is this expected behaviour?

thanks in advance

    Hi,

    is the primary key of that lookup field contain value? if it is contain value, then this is not an expected value, you should contact Microsoft support for this.

    But, before that, you can check, is there any JS that will trigger on load? if yes, try to disable them , if the issue still exist, contact Microsoft support asap, else you have to debug your JS.

    Hi Fun,

    apologies if I've misunderstood the answer, however the issues isn't that the fields don't map when i create a record.  the issue is when i deploy the solution containing the new field mappings i've created, when i open the relationship in the target environment the mappings haven't been created.

    Hi,

    I misunderstood your problem. When you deploy the solution, which item did you include inside the solution?

    thanks for quick reply.

    the solution contains Entity A and B, solution A and B, and the mappings.

    if i create a new mapping in the source environment and deploy it, it gets created.  however if i delete a mapping in the target environment, then try to deploy that mapping again from the source environment it isn't created.

    Hi,

    I think this is because once the component is installed as managed, you can delete it by importing the updated solution. You can refer this blog for more details-

    Hope this helps.
