Hi,

This is an exception in the plugins, so you need to disable any plugins on your custom entity to verify, then look at your plugin code to see where the problem is. Format exceptions in CRM are typically when you try to set a Guid to something that's not formatted as a Guid so I would look at any place you set lookups first.

Hope this helps. If so, I would appreciate if you would mark this as the verified answer.

Thanks,

Aiden

Just for more information, i have added 3 custom command bar buttons on this form using ribbon bench and this error comes when i click one of these buttons.

After the click i see this exception and data does not get saved. On every save i see the same unless i refresh the page.

Hi,

Open plugin registration tool and check for ActivityClose plugin on create of an entity. If its there, disable it and then try again.

Thanks

Hi again,

Do you have any JavaScript running on load or save on that form? If you had some js setting a field to a bad type just before it's saved, that could cause the error too. The ribbon buttons just being there wouldn't cause this problem.

Thanks,

Aiden

Hi Girijesh,

What are you attempting to have the command bar buttons do? Are they executing any scripts? Also, do you have any custom enable rules on the command bar buttons that may execute any script?

Did this issue occur before you added the ribbon buttons? And finally, are you on-prem or online?

Thanks all for the valuable suggestions.

Actually it was a silly error in the Java Script code for setting up a lookup value.

The code was written as:

Xrm.Page.getAttribute("Head").setValue([{

id: serviceResult.Head.Name (should be "Id"),

name: serviceResult.Head.Name,

entityType: serviceResult.Head.LogicalName

}]);

But the strange thing was this code was able to set the value on the UI, however when the save event was being fired it was throwing the error. That is why i could not figure out easily what the error was.
