I have a file that I want to import into Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 using the native import utility. The file does not contain a field that is required on the entity I want to import onto, is it possible to set the value for the field in the data map?
EG. The required field is “Source” and I want it to always be set to “Tech Survey” without adding it to the source file. Can I add something to the data map that will fill out this field for me on import?
You could create and add prevalidation plugin that sets the field for you automatically, but in my mind, that seems more difficult then just updating the file…
