D365 F&O Record update issue being blocked by Mandatory Field

(3) Share

Posted on by Mario_Engel

Hi,

I have a built a flow to create Stock Count Lines in F&O and in building out the solution I now want to check first if that line exists in F&O, and rather than create, I want to update the existing line. I have completed my List Lookup from the F&O data and I am getting the correct record returned. When I then try and update the record with a new "count" Flow has a mandatory field for the entity being the ItemNumber, but when running the flow it tells you the below:

""message": "An error has occurred. update not allowed for field 'ItemNumber'\r\n"

How do you get around this as it seems like a logic break? Or am I missing something. I am not trying to Update the Item Number but Flow forces me to define it.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Stock Count Update.png

I am getting the same issue, even when passing a null value it still receives the error. Seems like a logical break.

@sgarcia98 No, still getting this issue. I did submit a ticket for this and didn't get much help...at the end, it felt like they were saying it's meant to behave that way...but he feels more like a bug to me.

@VD, I may have found a workaround, I posted it in this thread.
