Can’t set customer parent if currency is different
I believe I might have found a bug.
Using web services, if you update the parent field on a customer record and the parent has a different currency than the child then the update will fail with the error code INVALID_KEY_OR_REF.
If you do this through the UI, it will work.
You can reproduce this error by following these steps:
1. Create a customer record, call it “A”, and set the currency to USD.
2. Create a customer record, call it “B”, and set the currency to GBP.
3. Using web services send a request (update or updateList) and try to set the parent field of B to A.
