My company have recently brought me into a project which is upgrading their current CRM solution. Before joining the project the team had already start creating the tables (previously known as entities) via the Dynamics 365 classic interface as they originally planned to make a model driven app.
The approach has now changed so we will be using those same tables with a Canvas app but connecting to those tables via the Dataverse tables (the entities created in classic Dynamics are automatically created in Dataverse).
So now I have created a Solution in our Dev environment, in which I have created a Canvas app and added the existing Dataverse tables. However when I try to export/ import the solution to our Test environment I get the error:
"There are missing dependencies. Install the following solutions before installing this one: Active"
This is a very generic error message and I have tried to fix it by ensuring all the related tables have been added to the solution however I am suspecting that when the tables where created in Dynamics 365 classic interface it created extra component such as Views, Forms etc. and Power Apps is not liking this.
To prove my point I created a new Dataverse table directly within a Power Apps solution and it created no Views, Forms and I was able to export/ import across environments fine.
The issue is the project team have created a large number of tables and columns in Dynamics 365 classic and it will be a time consuming effort to recreate them in a Solution.
So to avoid them having to do that my question is; is there either a quick way of recreating those tables or adding them into the solution as fresh Dataverse tables without the additional components? (PS. I have already tried adding existing tables and then manually selecting only the columns and relationships but was still getting the error).
