Delete Plugin not triggering during Merge

Posted on by Community Member Microsoft Employee

Hi All,

We have a delete plugin on one custom entity to create a log record during deletion of that record, its working fine. In the same entity we have a merging concept selecting two records we can merge one but during that merge one record is getting removed from DB (Checked "select count(*) from entity") but during that time delete plugin is not triggering. May I know the concept behind this Merge. Is it actually deleting the record during merge?

even we tried placing the delete plugin in pre validation stage.

Hi,

if you didnt implement any workflows or plugins to delete the record while merge, actually the record is still there, it just become inactive.

Hi Wei,

Actually in my case after merge the record is getting removed I guess I tested even in DB using that record guid, but delete plugin is not triggering. I need to know whether merge actually delete the record from system or move the record to some tables.

Hi,

After you merge the record, the record is still there, it is not deleted. Refer below post on how to find the merged record if you are using on prem version.
